Celebrating Women’s History Month — Women in farming in California

March is Women’s History Month! CDFA celebrates the substantial contributions of women in agriculture, including marketing, land use, crop production, record keeping, financial management, and engagement in policy. Women are centrally connected to agriculture every step of the way.

Did you know that in California alone, 45,244 women ag producers manage 11.5 million acres, generating $22.2 billion in agriculture sales? We thank and honor their hard work, innovation, and commitment to sustainable ag practices. Join us as we celebrate and recognize women in ag throughout March.
