Bears And Bees Don't Mix

MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON

The third annual Dairy Innovation Hub Summit is headed to UW-River Falls mid-November. Mitch Breunig, dairy farmer and chair of the Dairy Innovation Hub board, talks with Pam Jahnke about summit highlights.

With the changing weather, more and more Wisconsinites start thinking about gun deer season. Charitee Seebecker talks to Zach Haas, Creek Bottom Land Management, about the types of hunting stands out there, what to think about when choosing one, and key safety practices to keep in mind this hunting season.

Bears and bees may see to go together - but NOT - if you're a Wisconsin Honey Producer. During their state convention in Brookfield, Pam Jahnke visited with James Hillmeyer of Bancroft. Hillmeyer is involved in honey pollination and encountered bears in his beeyard himself. He launched an on-line survey to find out what other beekeepers have encountered. To date, of the 11 surveys filled out, more than $30,000 in damages have been accounted for. He visits more about the effort to come up with a plan.
