Junior Breeders Program
The New Jersey Junior Breeders' Fund is looking to future
generations of agricultural education/FFA students and 4-H
members to continue to advance the breeding of purebred livestock
and the production quality of grade livestock. In doing so,
we are offering loans to help agricultural education/FFA students
and 4-H members of the state carry out this goal. For information,
you may visit: www.nj.gov/agriculture/divisions/md/prog/juniorbreeders.html
The mission of the Equine Advisory Board is to assist the
department in the above mentioned efforts. The panel has 48
members, which represent 16 different breed groups and additional
agricultural organizations. One of the board's primary functions
is to recommend horse breeding and development programs to
the State Board of Agriculture.
