Dairy Month & FFA Convention -- Let's Talk June!

We start our morning with Jill Welke in Eau Claire! She catches up with Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation's Brad Olson about roundtable conversations that could shape agricultural policy.   Stu says we may have to dodge a little rain for Father's Day, but otherwise looking to be a sunny weekend!  Traditionally, Father's Day means family outings and bbqs. A recent report from CoBank says the grill isn't the only place people are choosing protein. Abbi (Prins) Groves is a Livestock Economist who says that meat snacks are rising in popularity. She predicts whether it's a short-term fad or a long-term trend. Sarah Hagenow stops in with a quick recipe that pairs June Dairy Month and Father's Day nicely. Hands-on learning doesn't stop after school. There are many career education opportunities that benefit from acting out scenarios. Brad Zellner from the Luxemburg Fire Department says old farm houses being prepared for demolition make great training opportunities for local crews. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
