N. WISCONSIN - Northern Wisconsin’s 2025 wild rice crop is low again this year. Satellite data shows an 18% reduction in surface area compared to last year. While regional insights exist, local production varies; some Vilas County lakes are closed due to poor surveys, while others opened in September. Boating waves also hinder growth, so slow/no wake is urged in rice areas. Harvesters should consult Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission’s Annual Harvest Outlook and DNR’s Wild Rice Harvesting webpages for information and licensing. DNR specialist Jason Fleener advises harvesting only when rice falls easily to protect future crops.
