The state of Wisconsin will conduct an environmental review of a proposed hog farm near Lake Superior that would be the largest in the state if built.
According to Reicks View Farms, construction of the Badgerwood farm would be a $15 million undertaking that would result in a facility with roughly 26,000 hogs in Bayfield County, replacing herds in Iowa. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is calling for an environmental impact study of the project.
Reicks View Farms Manager Gene Noem said they also want the study.
