Despite drought, heat and higher costs, state farm income was second highest ever
While net farm income in Wisconsin was down in 2012, it was still the second highest annual amount on record, according to the yearly Status of Wisconsin Agriculture report edited by UW–Madison emeritus professor Ed Jesse. Farmers who grew enough of their own feed did better than those who had to buy it.
