Did you know that all dairy cows are female?

Dairy cows produce milk. A lot has changed since dairy farming first came to Manitoba in the 19th century. Today’s dairy farms use advanced technology to monitor the health and wellbeing of their cows and make the task of milking more efficient for the farmers and their animals.

The Foundations of Manitoba Agriculture is a series of interactive courses and information sheets that invite you and your students to explore the different crops grown and animals raised in Manitoba.

Making the connection between food and where it comes from can lead to healthier eating choices and a better appreciation for agriculture and it's role in feeding the world.
