Do you know a woman doing amazing things in the dairy industry? If, so Jersey Canada wants to hear from you.

Join Jersey Canada to help celebrate women in the dairy industry by nominating someone to be recognized on its social media channels for International Women’s Day this March 8, 2025, as well as in the March issue of the Canadian Jersey Breeder.

Jersey Canada is an agricultural association in Canada for owners and breeders of Jersey cattle. The association is responsible for the management of the Jersey herdbook, and its role is to develop the Jersey breed in Canada.

For its celebration of women in dairy, all you have to do is:

  • Send an email with a photo of your nominee and a small paragraph describing why you are nominating them to michelle@jerseycanada.com no later than February 7, 2025.

Don’t miss out on the chance to give well-deserved recognition to your mom, sister, wife, daughter, colleague, or business partner for International Women’s Day.

Dr. Troy Rowan sits down with CLEAR Conversations host, Tracy Sellers. Dr. Rowan was a featured speaker at the 2025 State of the Science Summit at UC Davis. The event will return next year on June 16-18, 2026, continuing its focus on advancing livestock methane research and collaborative solutions.

Rowan, now an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, grew up surrounded by cattle on his family’s Charolais operation in Iowa. His family has been farming and ranching there for more than a century — long enough for the rhythms of agriculture to get in his blood.
