Chris showed at the fair himself many years ago and now helps at the fair volunteering and on the board. He notes that because they have a demand in exhibitors in livestock, they have to put up more tents which he also states is a good problem to have. The infrastructure includes new barns to accommodate those things. Chris also talks about the disconnect with the city board as well and how that has changed and now is working to improve Mandt Park and continue to make those improvements and host events.

He says numbers are always pretty steady for the fair but noticed that the smaller projects are decreasing over the years. Which he hopes to help improve as times goes on as they have more improvements and expansions to the facilities. He is happy to give an update that the City has been working with Stoughton Fair very well compared to other years and wanting to do away with the fair. Now they have new paved roads and are hoping to host bigger cattle shows and other events and construction and improvements continue. This all in accordance with celebrating 100 years next year and new announcements coming with that celebration once the fair concludes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

"Naturally Wisconsin" is boosting the market for Wisconsin's organic products, explains Executive Director Jamie Valenti-Jordan. An 85-degree and sunny summer day could be used to describe the perfect day to go on the lake, or the ideal growing conditions for a cranberry plant. Cranberry Outreach Extension Specialist Allison Jonjak has an update. Gov.Tony Evers signed the state budget. Assembly Agriculture Chair Travis Tranel says the compromise is a win for agriculture and rural Wisconsin. Participation is steady for Stoughton Fair, says Director Joe Conant. He's hopeful for a boost in exhibitors and attendance after improvements to roads and buildings. Construction will lead up to next year's 100-year fair anniversary. Lonnie Holthaus of Milkhaus Dairy produces A2 protein milk -- it doesn't cause the physical reaction that many people experience who are lactose intolerant. He's on a mission to spread the word about A2 milk and cheese! Ever.Ag Dairy Analyst Cody Koster says while the heat wave is slashing Midwest milk production, U.S. cheese prices remain a global bargain. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Regional Crops and Soils Educator Anastasia Kurth breaks down what our recent weather has meant to our crops. The corn and soybeans were both behind in growing degree days, and the heat helped to accelerate their growth. While the heat was helpful, the amount of moisture was problematic. A dry out will be important for disease prevention. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

If you routinely get a bellyache or worse after encountering dairy, then the dairy showcase is the last place you're visiting at the store. That's a problem for Lonnie Holthaus, dairy farmer from Fennimore. Holthaus and his family own and operate Milkhaus Dairy . They have genetically tested their herd of cows to focus on genetics that produce A2 protein milk . That, by definition, is milk that comes from cows that naturally produce only the A2 beta-casein protein, while conventional milk often contains a mix of A1 and A2. A2 protein milk and dairy products don't cause the physical reaction that many people experience who are lactose intolerant. But how do you educate them and the retailers that serve them?

Ben Becker doesn't come from an agriculture background but it doesn't mean he can't figure out how to help agriculture. Becker owns and operates Penguin Drones , in McFarland. He's using his computer science background to program this technology for precision and efficiency. Becker says when large ground rigs are hampered by wet fields, he can come in and supply responsible weed and insect control that reduces soil compaction and still delivers results. Becker says he's always interested in looking at new ways to use the technology including nutrient application, and forestry management. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Wrestling, rodeos, and animal shows, oh my! There’s no place like fair! That’s the theme of the 2025 Jefferson County Fair, July 9-13. This year, the entertainment focuses on families, exhibitors, and lifting the community. Abby Schopen says attendance is projected to be higher even without a grandstand headliner with this new focus. Fairgoers can look forward to local entertainment, thousands of animals, and expanded fair staples, including two rodeo nights. Learn more at jcofair.com .

Farmers are sharing their voice on state policy and the lack of a national farm bill. Jill Welke visits with Brad Olson, president of the WI Farm Bureau Federation, about a group of young farmers that went to Washington, D.C. to make their points on policy. Another hot, sticky day on the way for Wisconsin. Pam Jahnke gives a rundown on the forecast and also shares crop tips from Anastasia Kurth, UW-Extension Regional Crops and Soils Educator. She says the heat and humidity tax the energy of a plant, at the same time that insect populations are burgeoning. What if dairy could help you keep a slim waistline? Karen Antunes is a PhD candidate in the nutritional science department at UW-Madison. She’s working with the UW Dairy Innovation Hub to figure out if colostrum (the first form of milk produced by cows after calving) can restore gut health after taking antibiotics to reduce obesity later in life. She explains that antibiotics kill bad bacteria -- that's why humans take it when they're sick. But antibiotics also kill good bacteria -- microbes that can be tougher for children and young people to gain back leading to an increased risk for obesity. In mice, colostrum successfully brought back good bacteria, and those mice gained less fat when eating a "Western diet." It's just the beginning, as she explains to Stephanie Hoff. Wisconsin crops aren't improving just because of the heat and rain. Pam Jahnke highlights some of the weekly notes from the state crop progress report. She also notes displeasure from the WI Farmers Union in the lack of funding support for the WI Local Food Purchase Assistance Program. Federal funding for that program will be exhausted by August, and the Joint Finance Committee has opted not to include it in their current state budget. Monday's USDA acreage report showed farmers planting less soybeans and more corn this year. Numbers didn't really surprise the marketplace according to John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing in West Bend. He joins Pam Jahnke to break it down. Also developing, USDA allowing live cattle and other livestock back into the U.S. The border restrictions were connected with stopping movement of the New World Screwworm. Heinberg says it's going to be closely monitored, but it will be opened. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

It's been just over a month since a series of EF2 tornadoes raced across southeast Wisconsin. While the storms may have passed, for the farms that were impacted the lingering damage has changed lives. Pam Jahnke visits with Dr. Monty Belmar from Waupun Vet Services . Belmar was one of the veterinarians that responded to injured animals at a Juneau area dairy that was struck by a tornado. Aside from evaluating injured animals and responding immediately, there's the question of where the displaced animals will go. How will they be fed, watered and milked? While he's lived through events like this in the past, Belmar says each situation brings new challenges that don't end after the debris is picked up. Hot. That describes the weather coming to Wisconsin. Stu Muck explains what taking care of yourself and your animals will be a priority this weekend. When you hear about schools recruiting, you probably think about sports. Now agriculture schools are recruiting too! Stephanie Hoff was a part of the group when nearly 30 students from seven rural Wisconsin towns celebrated the UW-Madison College of Agricultural & Life Sciences Rural Scholars Program. These high-schoolers spent the last four days getting acquainted with the agriculture campus and college life, touring facilities like ag engineering, food science, and horticulture. They also stayed in college dorm rooms. Before the program, most of these seniors and juniors didn’t think a four-year university was in the cards for them. Now, they’ll be applying to UW-Madison. Rural Scholars Program Director Tanya Cutsforth says the effort, funded by USDA, is to reach out to rural students with the message that: college is possible for you. It's a little early to be very confident about where yields will be by the harvest, but taking a chance could pay off. Pam Jahnke chats with UW-Extension Soybean Specialist, Dr. Shawn Conley, about the 2025 WI Soybean Yield Contest. The contest, sponsored by the WI Soybean Marketing Board, recognizes growers with the best yield across the state. Conley also emphasizes that the information gained through the yield contest turns into guidance for future soybean research. Paid for by the WI Soybean Marketing Board.

Wisconsin played host to the summer conference for the National Farmers Union. Held a their new state headquarters in Chippewa Falls, Bob Bosold got a chance to visit with NFU President, Rod Larew, as well as WFU President, Darren VonRuden. There's still a lot of anxiety about getting a Farm Bill completed in Washington, D.C. and questions surrounding the "Big Beautiful Bill" and what it could be to farms and agribusinesses. Illinois stands poised to break records this year when it comes to tornadoes! Pam Jahnke shares the story from Illinois State Climatologist, Trent Ford. Today is the deadline for the state legislature to wrap up work on the budget. Representative Travis Tranel, the chair of the Assembly Agriculture Committee is watching a lot of moving parts. He explains to Stephanie Hoff that state budget negotiations or debates continue to take center stage on Capitol Hill. But there are also bills moving through the agriculture committee to watch. We start with the nutrient loss reduction program, a bill that Representative Tranel is cosponsoring. The Mid-West Farm Report is continuing to gather stories from families statewide that will be honored during the Wisconsin State Fair as Century or Sesquicentennial honorees. Aubrey Schlimgen chats with Bob Smith from Fond du Lac County, one of the sesquicentennial farms that will be honored. Bob and his brother were the youngest of the 4 brothers and did most of the work on the farm. When they started their work, they cleaned up a lot of the barns on their farm and built some buildings. 100ft off of the one barn to be exact. Bob and his Wife have three kids. His other two brothers got into education and even taught at the University of Dubuque. In 1980 they had experienced loss with a barn fire. Bob still farms to this day, no more cows but still with crops. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…
