Education
These following activities support a program of continuing education for persons
interested in the production and promotion of livestock.
Lectures, seminars, workshops, panels, briefings, etc.
Such activities would address timely topics such as marketing systems,
management techniques, estate planning and the use of new technologies in
agricultural operations.
Scholarships
Provide funds for scholarships and grants to students at the undergraduate or
graduate level. Scholarships could be made in recognition of the specific donor
and designated for students according to specific criteria.
Internships
There is a great need to join the practical experience found only in a hands-on
work environment with classroom instruction on the same topic. It is believed
these internships also will be beneficial for organizations and associations
concerned with or serving the needs of the public in areas related to
agriculture and livestock management.
Consumer research and education
Engaging in research regarding consumer attitudes about utilizing red meat in
their diets, so as to provide further education to the consumer, will benefit
the livestock industry.
