Rohde to leave as Wisconsin agriculture chief for university role

State Agriculture Secretary Gary Rohde wraps up more than five years in Madison and heads back to UW River Falls as dean of the College of Agriculture. He will stay on through mid to late July to aid in a search for his successor, praising his admin record, farmland preservation, farm marketing efforts, grain inspection projects, a farmers market news service, and strong public accessibility. The move follows a fatal heart attack that created a vacancy in the deanship and reflects ongoing debates about cabinet versus departmental appointments in Wisconsin government.
