Janna Stubbs from Alpine, Texas is a cow-calf operator who serves on the Cattlemens’ Beef Board executive committee and is all about telling agriculture’s story to the general public.

“I married into this 14 years ago and I really enjoy being a part of agriculture and the cattle industry,” Janna said during an interview for our I AM USFRA series on AgWired. “I feel like I’m always my husband’s voice because he’s always out working.”

As an active volunteer for the beef industry, Janna was involved with the American National CattleWomen as chair of consumer education and promotion in 2011-2012 when the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) was just getting started. “I was asked to be part of the leadership retreat in Chicago for USFRA through American National CattleWomen,” she said. “I have seen from that time a huge growth – it’s been magnificent.”

Janna’s favorite USFRA program is the Faces of Farming and Ranching. “Programs like this put us out there so we can answer the questions (that consumers have),” said Janna. “If we don’t tell our story, someone else is going to and it’s not going to be right.”
