Not really much at all. While we're recognizing & celebrating the abundance provided by Montana Agriculture all this month here at KSEN & KZIN, I'll submit that whole milk is only 4.5% fat.  In fact, a Montana diary cow will produce over 100 POUNDS of milk a …

If you ask me, there's a ton of it (even more) right here in Montana. As we celebrate National Agricultural Day this month with this year's theme, "Agriculture: Food for Life," we're reminded that there's not only 265,000 head of cattle on Montana's Indian …

No wonder one hears the term "worker bee" so often...it takes our Montana bees 2 MILLION flower visits to produce only 1 pound of honey!  In fact, Montana ranks 2nd in the United States in honey production. How sweet it is. Speaking of sweet, nearly half of the sugar consumed …

The theme for THIS year's National Agriculture Day (Thursday 3/14) is "Agriculture: Food for Life," & we're downright proud of our MONTANA wheat! According to our Montana Grain Growers Association, MORE foods are made WITH wheat than with any other cereal grain. D…

I'd submit our Montana wheat is the BEST! In fact, both wheat & barley are Montana #1 cash crop. Montana's in the TOP 5 wheat producing states, & our friends & neighbors over in Choteau County (think Fort Benton) have the #3 wheat producing county in the country! KS…
