cattlewoman

Woman raising bovines

A cattlewoman is a woman who raises or tends cattle, the female counterpart to cattleman.

The term appears in ranching contexts where gender specification matters: She was the third-generation cattlewoman to run the family operation.

Like cattleman, it can denote either ownership or occupation.
