Wisconsin winds down haylift amid drought aid limits
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture announced a phasedown of its haylift program after meeting over half the drought relief needs in northwestern areas. Secretary Howard Richards said local groups and churches are taking over, and statewide aid will not extend to all regions. He emphasized farmers must rely on weather and market conditions, not state guarantees. In other business, the board approved a stricter aldicarb rule and discussed forming a dairy council with broad industry input.

Lake to Lake ice cream plant to close in Manitowoc
Lake to Lake ice cream plant in Manitowoc will shut down December 18 as Land O Lakes Cooperative seeks to cut non performing assets. Production has risen since acquisition but not enough to justify continued operation. The Lake to Lake label will be retained for sales in eastern Wisconsin but bottling for Lake to Lake by Golden Guernsey will end. The plant employs 14 people and had previously bottled milk, a function moved to Sheboygan earlier.
