Im embarrassed to say I thought I knew anything substantial about Wisconsin agriculture or its history before I read this book. Wisconsin Agriculture should be required reading in history classes from high school to the collegiate level. It makes me thankful that Jerry Apps has such a sense of commitment to Wisconsins agricultural heritage--and to getting the story right. --Pam Jahnke, Farm Director, Wisconsin Farm Report RadioWisconsin has been a farming state from its very beginnings. And though its long been known as the Dairy State, it produces much more than cows, milk, and cheese. In fact, Wisconsin is one of the most diverse agricultural states in the nation.The story of farming in Wisconsin is rich and diverse as well, and the threads of that story are related and intertwined.
