Old iron at work. That's what you can look forward to at the 62nd annual Badger Steam & Gas Engine show this weekend outside of Baraboo. Ben Jarboe takes a closer look with Steve Rodebush, president of the club. He says they're focused on the Ford and Ferguson brands this year. He also explains that there will be many demonstrations giving people a chance to see how work 'used to be done' in the nation's farms and industrial business centers.

Weather looks friendly for the big show in Baraboo. Stu Muck says that the only uncomfortable part that's not changing is the humidity.

Ashley Huhn from the Steffes Group says things are temporarily slower in the office while farms prepare for the harvest. He does note though that prices for good used equipment remain firm, as does the real estate market. Paid for by Steffes Group.

The World Ag Supply/Demand Estimates released on Tuesday were in line with what traders had expected. Pam Jahnke reports that Wisconsin farmers are expected to harvest about 189 bushel/acre on corn, and about 54 bushel/acre on soybeans.

Grazing is a practice that most Wisconsin dairies used a generation ago. Now the Dairy Grazers Alliance wants to reinfuse enthusiasm for the practice again. Stephanie Hoff learns from central Wisconsin dairyman, Joe Tomandl, about the market value being discovered for grass-fed milk. Their projections are that the global market for that element will grow by nearly 23% in the next decade.
