When it comes to conservation, the Brattset Family Farm doesn’t just talk the talk - they graze! In Jefferson County, this mother-daughter duo, Weenonah Brattset and Kirsten Jurcek, have been rotationally grazing beef cattle since 2005. The entire family has transitioned the farm into a thriving ecosystem of healthy soil, clean water, and biodiversity. Their efforts to integrate cropland into perennial vegetation have made the land more productive. These are among the reasons they’re one of four finalists for the 2025 Wisconsin Leopold Conservation Award. This honor celebrates those who go above and beyond to care for the land, water, and wildlife. Kirsten Jurcek explains to Stephanie Hoff how their conservation journey took root. Yes, a good chunk of Wisconsin witnessed a killing freeze overnight. The same pattern will repeat Friday night before temperatures moderate. That's the word from Stu Muck.Ben Jarboe finds out that Wisconsin farmers didn't use a lot of propane to dry down their crop this year. Cheryl Lytle, Executive Director of Wi propane gas association says 70% of propane is used to heat homes in the state. Right now, she says it appears that prices will remain steady and supplies look ample. She also stresses the safety element that must be respected when using propane for anything.The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources(DNR) has just concluded their annual state water survey. With increasing presence of things like data centers in rural communities, Adam Freihoefer, Water Use Section Manager at the DNR, says it's important to look at water like you would any other commodity you're using on your property. Just like electricity. Meteor it so you know what you're using. He says Wisconsin just came off one of the highest levels of groundwater since records were kept back in 1920.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we highlight another farm being celebrated as a finalist for the Leopold Conservation award. Jill Welke talks to Marathon County farmer, Pat Socha. While growing crops, the Sochas utilize precision technology, no-till practices, and cover crops to reduce erosion and prevent nutrient losses. Buffer strips and a pollinator plot promote biodiversity. To manage timber production and wildlife habitat, selective harvests are carefully timed every 15-20 years without clear cutting. Pat is a founding member and board member of Eau Pleine Partnership for Integrated Conservation.The wind may surprise you today with its speed - and its chill! Stu Muck says we should prepare to protect ourselves against the elements through the end of the week at least.Cooper Humphries says the rain this week has given operators a chance to catch up on book work, repairs and sleep! Humphries says he's pleased with how the remain crop is standing versus cool, wet weather elements. His Wyffels Wednesday update also includes how more traders, analysts and other farmers are turning to their website for real time harvest update. Paid for by Wyffels Hybrids.Thomas Montsma from Brandon is one of the giant pumpkin growers that populates Wisconsin. He tells Kiley Allan that the dedication to growing the biggest pumpkin begins long before the frost is out of Wisconsin's ground. He explains that he starts plants in his basement and then moves them outside under mini-greenhouses to really start sizing up. With the global marketplace being less than friendly these days, many farms are choosing to store their 2025 crops and wait for better times. But is there enough storage out there to hold it all? Stephanie Hoff talks about that subject with grain merchandiser Alex Beaver out of southeast and south central Wisconsin. He tells us not just how the crop is looking coming in, but where it’s going with China boycotting beans. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mike Berg is taking a page from his father's playbook on the 500 acres he owns in Lafayette County. Berg is one of the finalists in the Leopold Conservation award cycle. One of the reasons he's being considered is the care and management he deploys on the driftless region he oversees. The Pecatonica River flows through his property and has caused a lot of issues over the course of time. Berg has installed all kinds of land management strategies to try and keep soil in place when the Pecatonica overflows. Pam Jahnke gets the story. Warmer temps during the day - but the threat of freezing overnight - is what Stu Muck is focused on. Muck says he thinks a killing freeze will impact northern Wisconsin as soon as tonight. Brady Zuck is a beef producer in Ladysmith that's concerned about what Argentinian beef could do to his domestic beef market. He talks to Ben Jarboe about the undeniable fact that U.S. consumers are still buying beef despite higher prices. That's why he's frustrated that the Trump Administration is talking about bringing in that beef to lower consumer prices. Zuck tells Jarboe that he depends on these "good times" to allow him to weather difficult years down the road. Freezing temperatures are not good news for Wisconsin potato growers. Ryan Walther from Alsum Farms says a freeze could introduce some bad chemistry to potato storage. Cody Koster, dairy analyst with EverAg says reopening the Farm Service Agency side of USDA is breathing a little life into the marketplace this morning. Koster says the latest global dairy report cast a negative shadow on U.S. prices. The world price for cheese and butter continues to sink on growing supplies. Is there still holiday demand out there? Koster says he thinks there may be - but it has to show itself pretty soon to be able to actually be used during the holidays.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Plasten runt våra frukter och grönsaker är varken naturlig, hållbar eller nödvändig. Det menar Michael Neuman, som är vd och medgrundare på startupbolaget Kitocoat med bas på KTH i Stockholm. Genom att använda ämnet kitin från skaldjur och svampar har man lyckats ta fram ett pulver som blandas med vatten och bidrar med en beläggning runt produkter som avokado, mango, gurka och ananas. Livslängden tycks öka markant. Nu återstår bara den regulatoriska pusselbiten. Heja Framtiden har ett betalt samarbete med tävlingen Startup 4 Climate som anordnas av Godel och Ellevio för sjätte året i rad.
