We are incredibly proud to introduce Makayla Spoerr as the first Pamela J. Byrd Memorial Scholarship recipient. The sophomore from The Ohio State University was one of many applicants for this newly established scholarship created to provide a student in the animal feed and nutrition industry with funding to pursue their educational dreams. The scholarship was the brainchild of Feedworks USA partners Malcolm Ballard, Peter Williams and Mike Parsley to honor Pamela Byrd, late wife of Feedworks USA partner Tim Byrd. “Makayla embodies Pamela’s values,” says Tim. “As our scholarship recipient, she has demonstrated early in life a readiness and resolve that will help her carry on Pamela’s legacy of helping others, something Pamela did through her loving support and leadership. This announcement means even more today as it would have been Pamela’s birthday. She would have been very proud to know Makayla.” Makayla was elated to hear she was selected. “I’m ecstatic and feel very honored because I know how much this scholarship means to Mr. Byrd,” says Makayla. “It also means a lot to me to be given the opportunity to carry on Pamela's impact. I hope to honor Pamela's legacy well and make her family proud.” Shaun Wellert, DVM, MS, DACVPM and senior lecturer at Ohio State ATI says, “I’ve had the privilege of witnessing Makayla’s dedication to her academic pursuits and her deep passion for agriculture and animal science. She is an exceptional student, and her intellectual curiosity combined with her commitment to excellence make her a standout among her peers. Makayla has accumulated an impressive amount of real-world experience. I have no doubt she will continue to excel in her studies and make significant contributions to the field of animal science and agriscience education.” After Makayla earns her bachelor’s degree in animal science – animal industries, she plans to attend graduate school, and then earn a PhD in animal science and pursue a career in livestock genetics. In addition to being a fulltime student, Makayla works three jobs, fulfills a significant role in educating the public about agriculture as a Grow Next Gen Ambassador for the Ohio Soybean Council, actively contributes to the Ashland County Junior Fair Board, and helps train dairy exhibitors and organize shows as a member of the Ashland County Dairy Committee. She’s also involved in her community. The scholarship selection committee included Tim Byrd, Dr. Benjamin Wenner and Becca Culbertson of Feedworks USA and Jennifer Aleman, daughter of Pamela and Tim Byrd. We appreciate Makayla’s commitment to our industry, and we thank her for setting such a high bar as the first recipient of the Pamela J. Byrd Memorial Scholarship.

Calmin can create dietary space in a dairy ration, offer more formulation flexibility and save “green”…the daily savings can be large and intriguing.

We think she’s pretty amazing too! Thanks to Progressive Dairy for putting the spotlight on Becca Culbertson. Check out the magazine’s New Hires section.

It’s Day 1 of the New York Farm Show and National FFA Day! Proud FFA member Lily Marshman, a junior at Oxford Academy in Oxford, NY, and a Feedworks USA intern, is helping John Clark in the booth and repping her Blue Jacket. Along with her passion for dairy cattle, especially showing her Red & Whites, Lily also is very active in her FFA Chapter, including doing a supervised agricultural experience (SAE) in Agricultural Sales.

Pre-event activities can be helpful to us all, especially to those in sales. For Feedworks Technical Sales Manager John Clark, there’s one annual pre-event dinner he never attended due to distance and travel time. But yesterday, he made it a point to drive eight hours, arriving a day early for the Wenger’s Ag Customer Appreciation Day. And he’s truly glad he did because he was able to partake in a retirement celebration for Jeff Tyson, a friend of John’s for more than 30 years. Today is Jeff’s last full-time day of work at Rockingham Cooperative, and John’s super grateful that he didn’t miss the party. 🎉 John and everyone at Feedworks USA say: Here’s to one of the best in his business. Happy Retirement Jeff.
