Virginia Cattle WISE (Women Increasing Skills & Education)
In 2021 the Virginia Cattle Industry Board (VCIB) co-funded a hands on conference titled “Virginia Cattle WISE (Women Increasing Skills & Education).” This initiative has a mission of ensuring that women involved with cattle operations have opportunities to learn necessary skills in an environment comfortable for them. The endeavor was a collaboration between female ANR agents in seven different county Virginia Cooperative Extension offices with multiple funding partners.
