Wisconsin’s farmers are still dodging raindrops to get fieldwork done. Many, including Professional Dairy Producers President Mitch Breunig of Sauk City, Wisconsin had to shift their priorities and work on first crop alfalfa while the quality is high. “We parked our planter and started doing hay and I think we’re in a good place. I just had a scissor clipping from my seed person. The 26th was the date on it, and it said we were still at 200 relative value, so I felt good about that.”
Breunig’s Mystic Valley Dairy raises its own feed, and Breunig says there are still unfinished fields to get back to.
