Wisconsin faces brucellosis status test in 1982
Wisconsin’s brucellosis free status may hinge on new federal rules effective Jan 1, 1982. Dr. Willis Lyle warned the change requires year‑to‑year absence of field strain infections and stricter state rules. The Agriculture Department aims to tighten entry controls and require calf vaccination and test proof, with bison covered similarly, as the state pursues retention of its brucellosis free designation.

Beef outlook strong despite hype says UW extension expert
Dr. Dick Vilstrup told Trempealeau St Croix and Washburn counties beef producers that a Wall Street Journal piece claiming beef will vanish due to grain needs is unfounded. He cited ongoing beef cycles, estimated 11 to 13 years, and urged Wisconsin to grow herds, keep meat local to cut transport losses, and expect prices to rise mid year as production steadies.
