The budget provides $1 million for the Wisconsin Initiative for Agricultural Exports (WIAE), an effort launched in December 2021 to increase sales of Wisconsin dairy, crop, and meat products overseas.
Members of the Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association (WCMA) applauded Gov. Tony Evers’ action to sign the 2023-2025 biennial state budget into law.
The bill includes funding to support dairy innovation, boost dairy exports, and improve infrastructure in the state’s rural communities.
