MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON
State Paper Industry Keeps Growing & Vance Visits WI

MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON

Through paper and fiber, the state remains a powerhouse of productivity. Wisconsin maintains its position as the #1 paper producer in the U.S., bolstered by two new $500 million mills recently constructed in the Green Bay area by Green Bay Packaging and Georgia Pacific. Beyond direct mill jobs, the industry supports a massive supply chain where every single papermaking job creates between one and six additional jobs in the community. While the industry has suffered painful mill closures over the last 15 years (such as in Wisconsin Rapids), recent expansions and state support in Northwest Wisconsin have helped stabilize the sector and provide new pathways for displaced workers. Stephanie Hoff gets all the details from Scott Suder, president of the WI Paper Council. Enjoy the warm up today before snow returns to Wisconsin tomorrow. Stu Muck says that while there could be an accumulation of snow here, there will be larger amounts in the eastern U.S. Difficult weather in Wisconsin plus challenging market conditions can really wear dairy producers down. Why not try and fire-up again at the Professional Dairy Producers of WI annual business meeting next week. Kiley Allan gets a preview from their executive director, Shelly Mayer. Remember, through a partnership with the Mid-West Farm Report, first time attendees are being offered free registeration through the end of the day Friday, 2/27. Just text your name and email address to 877-301-3276. The small community of Plover leaned on neighbors to host the visit of Vice President J.D. Vance on Thursday. Stephanie Hoff was there. While there was plenty of policy discussion, she focuses on how the small rural community pooled its resources to pull off a coordinated visit to their neighborhood.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week was historic for Plover, Wisconsin. On Thursday, for the first time ever, a sitting Vice President made the trip to the village in central Wisconsin. Stephanie Hoff was there in the press pool as JD Vance toured a local manufacturing facility. While the speech was meant to rally voters for the upcoming Congressional and Wisconsin gubernatorial races, the rhetoric hit on familiar national notes – ones we heard during the President’s State of the Union address, like tax-free tips, drug pricing, and falling crime rates. But when the floor opened for questions, media outlets wanted to discuss rural infrastructure topics like health care, agriculture, and data centers. Stephanie asked the VPOTUS if this administration is prioritizing the trade deals Wisconsin farmers need.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You’ve heard us talk about labeling rules for dairy and meat, but what about honey? Today, Stephanie Hoff is diving into how policy decisions impact the beekeeping industry, both here in Wisconsin and across the country. Joining us is James Hillemeyer, vice president of the Wisconsin Honey Producers Association and co-owner of LB Works out of Plover, a beekeeping operation that travels out of state for pollination services. James has a national perspective on what’s happening in the industry, having served with both the American Beekeeping Federation and the American Honey Producers Association. He’s passionate about making sure when a label says “honey,” it really means honey. It's a foggy start to Wisconsin's Tuesday, and that fog will probably redevelop this afternoon according to Stu Muck.Yes, there's also snow on the way for your Thanksgiving. The 95th annual meeting of the Wisconsin Farmers Union is on the way! Danielle Endvick, executive director of the organization, says that they're excited not only about the chance to gather together, but also the great content they'll be focused on. The final crop progress report for 2025 was released on Monday. The information was impacted by the government shutdown, so it basically told us that 90% of Wisconsin's corn crop was harvested, and that 70% of the winter wheat looks good to excellent! Kiley Allan reminds us that Thanksgiving is the number one date when people have accidents with fire! Michael Wos, Executive Director of the Professional Firefighters of Wisconsin Charitable Foundation says the leading causes of emergency calls during the holidays are related to cooking and heating sources. Specific risks include using turkey fryers (never used with frozen turkey), not inspecting or properly using heating sources, and improperly using extension cords or gas-fired appliances indoors. He also says to check the dates on smoke alarms, as they have a lifespan of only 8-10 yearsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Superstorm Sandy left behind plant-free, sandy beaches on barrier islands in New York and New Jersey, which actually offers better camouflage for nesting plovers. Where these hurricane-created habitats were protected, Piping Plovers have boomed.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
