Wisconsin Still Tops Cranberry Production & Butterfat Surges
Description
The weekend is looking to be a mild one with temperatures reaching the 50's in the state. This is according to ag meteorologist Stu Muck.
Wisconsin harvest is wrapped up and fared a little worse than in previous years. Ben Jarboe talks with Grant Holley, the Executive director of the Wisconsin State Cranberry Growers Association, to see what the numbers look like. Don't worry though, Wisconsin is still tops in production.
With the holidays coming up a common ingredient used to add flavor is butter. Stephanie Hoff chats with CoBank lead dairy economist Corey Geiger to see what the supply and demand looks like for butterfat.
Ashley Kohls, the Executive Director of the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association, joins the show to give a look into how long it takes to go from gobble to table. She also gives insight into what producers go through if HPAI is found in their flock.
Turkey may not be your go to protein for the holidays, and you may opt for ham. This industry has its share of challenges with PRRS or Porcine Reproductive and Respirator Syndrome. Kiley Allan has a talk with Extension Swine Specialist, Jeff Morris, to get an update on how it is impacting the pork industry.
