Nebraska family starts dairy farming in Wisconsin’s Rusk County
Richard and Donna Reick earned their first Wisconsin dairy year amid low milk prices and high production costs after moving their family from Nebraska to a 160 acre Ladysmith area farm. They milk 23 Holsteins and Guernseys, use horses for plowing, faced late paychecks, and plan to pay as they go while adjusting to a tougher market.
