Become a Junior Member of the AJCA

If you are under the age of 21, you may qualify for Junior Membership in the American Jersey Cattle Association.

To qualify, you must be listed as a Recorded Owner of a Registered Jersey, either (1) as the single Recorded Owner, or (2) whenlisted by name as one of the Recorded Owners in a partnership.

When you become a Junior Member, you become affiliated with the oldest dairy breed registration organization in the United States. The American Jersey Cattle Association was organized in 1868 to "improve and promote the Jersey breed." It is today a worldwide leader among purebred registry organizations.

Membership entitles you to register the Jerseys you breed at regular membership rates. This saves you at least $3 for every animal you register until junior membership expires on December 31 of the year in which you turn 21.

Membership is also a requirement to participate in the National Jersey Youth Achievement Contest, the National Jersey Youth Production Contest, The All American Junior Jersey Show, and to apply for national scholarships and educational awards.

Junior Membership is free. It will automatically expire on December 31 of the year in which you attain your 21^st birthday.
