Joint venture to add 100000 Holstein steers in Wisconsin
A proposed joint venture among farmers, Midwest Livestock, and Packerland Packing aims to feed 100000 additional Holstein steers annually in Wisconsin. The plan, announced last week, would connect about 2500 farms through Mor-Lean Cattle Feeders Association and allow daily producer representation at the packing plant to negotiate prices and monitor carcass weights and grades.

Group weighs sale of fairgrounds and indoor arena plan
A three member Wood County subcommittee will negotiate with Marshfield on selling the Central Wisconsin Fairgrounds to the city. Marshfield Hockey Association proposes a 33125 square foot enclosed arena costing about 650000 with seating for 1000, kitchen, restrooms, and concession. The building would adjoin the Curling Club and be owned by the association, leased from the city, for year round use. The move comes as the state fair debt is reduced to 10000, down from over 40000.
