Frost Advisory, Art Of Cheese & Brand Loyalty On A Monday Morning

Farmers are gearing up for the harvest, and that means it’s go-time for equipment prep. For some, that includes picking up used machinery at auction. Matt and Jim Gavin of Gavin Bros Auctions in Reedsburg tell Ben Jarboe that demand is strong and prices have held steady. More farmers are focusing less on brand loyalty and more on value.

Today's Compeer Financial Ag Weather Update calls for a frost advisory before a warm-up, says Stu Muck.

The apple harvest is rolling along at Sunrise Orchards in Gays Mills. Owner Brent Seiser tells Kiley Allan that while frost can be a challenge in both spring and fall, especially for late-harvested apples, this season is shaping up nicely.

You can also be a part of the love for Wisconsin dairy through the Art of Cheese Festival! This features a variety of cheese-themed events, including hands-on workshops, creamery tours, an artisan cheese fair, and cooking demonstrations, alongside culinary excursions and a large-scale cheese ball, Jessica Pralle-Trimner tells Pam Jahnke.
