Warm Wisconsin maple season starts amid warm weather warnings
Maple syrup producers in northern Wisconsin were advised to monitor warm weather and begin tapping when sap is ready. UW-Extension forester Ted Peterson warned that bud development ends sap flow and may lower yields, urging careful weather watching and planning for a potentially shorter season. Pricing may rise to 18 to 24 dollars per gallon if the season is tight, with 6 to 7 dollars per quart typical, while production could be below average this year.
