Howdy, all--
Check out this piece on the small farm crisis in Wisconsin, in the current
issue of /Mother Jones/:
* Wisconsin's Sacrificial Cows * - News: Antiquated federal price controls
are propping up huge dairy farms in unlikely states across the US -- and
helping to kill off small ones in Wisconsin, "the dairy state."

A sidebar includes a link to a story about small farming in general from 1999:

MoJo seeks feedback on the Wisconsin dairy story, so, you Cheezers
(honorary and otherwise), step up and have a whack at it. :^)
