There are more than one million women farmers in the U.S. today.
In honor of Women’s History Month, we checked back in with April Hemmes (featured on FarmHER Season 1), an Iowa soybean producer who has been a strong advocate for agriculture and has served in various industry roles.
April Hemmes spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about her ag journey, the importance of women in the ag sector, and her message to other FarmHERs.
