Wisconsin lawmakers will consider budgeting a million dollars for specialty crop research and market development.
State Senator Patrick Testin tells Brownfield the proposed funding would be split two ways. “We, myself and Representative (Nancy) VanderMeer re-introduced these bills that would provide five-hundred thousand dollars to the cranberry growers to increase their marketing as well as do more research over the next two years, and then also five-hundred thousand over the next two years to our potato and vegetable growers to do the same.”
Testin says the money would be good investment.
