What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Wisconsin has become the tenth largest agricultural exporter in the United States. State agricultural exports reached $2.13 billion during the first half of 2026, marking the highest first-half total on record and a 5.42 percent increase compared to the same period the prior year. The success is attributed to initiatives like the Wisconsin Initiative for Agricultural Exports (WIAE) under the administration of Governor Tony Evers.
