FALL WEIGHT LIMITS COMING
Sunday, August 21st, 2011 -- 10:59 AM
While summer doesn?t official end for a few more weeks, in many ways, September 1st is the start of a new season.For instance, the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation is reminding farmers and motorists that fall harvest weight limits take effect from September 1 through November 30. That allows farmers to exceed normal weight limits when transporting from the field to their first point of storage. No overweight truck permit is required for the transportation of corn, soybeans, potatoes, vegetables or cranberries from the field to initial storage, or from the field to the initial processing point. Farmers should check with local law enforcement to learn about any special restrictions.
