CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. (RFD NEWS) — President Donald Trump is heading to Wisconsin today for a roundtable discussion with dairy farmers as the administration continues to highlight its agricultural agenda ahead of the fall harvest season.
The White House says Trump will visit Chippewa Falls this afternoon, followed by the roundtable focused on American agriculture at 4 p.m. Eastern.
Administration officials say the event will give the president an opportunity to discuss several major issues facing farm country, including trade, farm income, input costs, tax policy, and efforts to expand export opportunities for U.S. agricultural products.
The visit comes as agriculture remains a central concern for many producers navigating tight margins, elevated input costs, and uncertainty in global markets. Recent discussions between the administration and trading partners, along with ongoing debates over fertilizer costs, biofuels policy, and export growth, have kept farm policy at the forefront in Washington.
Trump’s appearance in Wisconsin also coincides with National Dairy Month, placing additional attention on one of the nation’s leading dairy-producing states. Wisconsin ranks among the top states for milk production and is home to thousands of dairy farms that continue to face challenges ranging from labor availability to production costs and market volatility.
The White House says the president will use the event to highlight policies the administration believes support rural America and strengthen the agricultural economy.
