6 new infographics show what USMCA does for the U.S. dairy industry

Benefits include preserving U.S. dairy access to Mexico, increasing access into Canada, protections for common cheese names and reforms to Canada’s dairy pricing system. 
 
The U.S. House of Representatives is expected to vote on the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) on Thursday, raising an obvious question dairy farmers and exporters need to know: What will USMCA do for us? 
 
The U.S. Dairy Export Council and the National Milk Producers Federation have created six educational infographics that answer that question with words, images and data.
 
The infographics above and below were created for easy downloading and sharing. The images can be published on websites and other platforms without written permission.

You Be The Judge: Evaluating 8 Breeding Rams!

Video: You Be The Judge: Evaluating 8 Breeding Rams!

It's time for some honest feedback here at Ewetopia Farms! Today, we’re showing you all eight rams we used for breeding this year. Instead of just presenting them, we thought it would be fun to create a “Ram Report Card” — where we point out both their strengths and areas for improvement.

But here’s the twist: you be the judge! In the comments, let us know what you like about each ram and what you think could be improved. No ram is ever perfect, but every one of them brings something valuable to the flock. By sharing perspectives, we all learn more about what to look for in good breeding stock.

At Ewetopia Farms, we raise registered Suffolk and Polled Dorset sheep, focusing on high-quality genetics, structure, and friendly temperaments. Evaluating breeding rams is part of the bigger picture of building stronger flocks — and we’re excited to share the process with you.
