The Wisconsin Assembly Agriculture Committee postponed a decision on a milk testing rule for one week after hearings on both sides. The rule would stiffen tests for butterfat and protein, prompting concerns from small labs about potential business losses. The panel plans to act on April 24 at a special meeting and also discussed allowing townships in Farmland Preservation if their county lacks exclusive agricultural zoning, plus a $2 million expansion to the Wisconsin Farmers Fund for farmer mandated animal waste improvements.
