Cameron recently completed a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture from the University of Guelph. This past summer Cameron worked as an Agronomy Assistant with Monsanto based in Lethbridge, Alberta.
Very active at his family’s Macksvilla Farms, Cameron has been involved in all aspects of their 120 head milking cow operation. As a youngster, he fondly remembers the farm receiving their first home bred Excellent cow. This accomplishment was a tremendous source of pride for the family and helped to shape Cameron’s career goals and aspirations.
“I look forward to working closely with my father and continuing to build Macksvilla into a 100% registered Holstein herd with sound cattle that have strong pedigrees,” says Cameron.
Cameron is very excited about this opportunity, “I am honoured and thrilled to have been selected as this year’s exchange representative. I can’t wait to learn about the dairy industry ‘Down Under’ and to see how the same elite genetics work in vastly different environments. Thank you to Semex and Holstein Canada for making this possible.”
