Wisconsin’s Governor says there will be another round of the Wisconsin Farm Support Program providing direct payments to farmers. Tony Evers stopped at farms near Columbus, Coon Valley, and Menomonie to announce the assistance, which he says will distribute another 50-million dollars through the Department of Revenue later this fall.
Brownfield asked the Governor if there will be payout limits. He said, “It’s too early to tell. After we have a chance to sit down with the Department of Revenue, we’ll have a better idea of that, but it’s going to be similar to last time but I think we learned some things as we went along last time, too.”
