Census Shows Number Of Women In Agriculture Growing

The U-S Department of Agriculture reports the number of women in that field is growing in Wisconsin.  About 35-percent of all Wisconsin farmers were women as of 2017.  Many of the 40-thousand women counted in the Agriculture Census hold leadership roles.  A change in how farm data is collected plays a role in those statistics, but women are still the fastest growing segment of farmers in the state.
