Wisconsin’s Farm and Industry Short Course would come back with a provision in the Governor’s budget, but with some changes.
Randy Romanski is the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection. He says Governor Tony Evers proposed 700 thousand dollars over the biennium to bring back the hands-on farm training. Romanski says if passed, the new short course would be led by UW River Falls with collaboration from campuses at Platteville and Madison.
