Wisconsin budget aids farmers with tax relief plan
The 1985 87 Wisconsin budget, 1100 pages, backs $18.7 billion in spending and nearly $1 billion in tax relief focused on farmers. It includes property tax relief, tax shelter limits, Farmland Preservation changes, dairy and medicine exemptions, a Dairy Research Center at UW Madison, and more funds for soil erosion and non point pollution control. Local governments will see more state aid, with two tax bill lists to show levies and aid. Taxpayers gain clearer budgeting signals and two tier limits curb farm loss write offs based on off farm income. The plan also raises farmland preservation credits and expands non aid district relief while evaluating school funding away from property taxes.

Case to invest in automated manufacturing at 25 plants
Case Corporation plans major capital spending in automated manufacturing across 25 plants worldwide, including Racine. The move aims to integrate computer aided design with modern manufacturing, boost future competitiveness against Deere, and could create more Racine jobs over six to eight years. The Inter national Harvester acquisition last November expanded Case’s capital equipment and robot inventory.
