Rachael McGrath simply loves Jersey cows, and has a real passion for improving the genetics so they’re not only great in the paddock but also perform well in the show ring. Although as a teenager a farming accident fundamentally changed the family farm it was obvious to Rachael that the farm was where she wanted to be. In this chat she shares how she found her love for the farm, how she is working towards the genetic improvements of the herd and how she’s developed a passion for showing cows. Rachael was also recently awarded the Young Leader Award at the WestVic Dairy Awards and she shares what she is doing within the industry.

About CREAM OF THE CROP
The conference, in it's third year is an opportunity for women in the dairy industry to come together to learn, connect and reflect. Recognising the contribution, regardless of their role, they make to the industry and their wider community.
The 2024 event will be on July 30 & 31, with the first day held in the Dungula Event Centre, Moama, followed by an inclusive evening networking event in Echuca and a then half day tour in the surrounding region.
With a carefully considered 1.5 day program, attendees will have the opportunity to be challenged and inspired by speakers, panels, workshops, and farm and factory tours; as well as having the opportunity to network with like-minded people in the industry. The conference is open to farmers and service providers of all ages and stages, and the organisers encourage both group and individual registrations.
