Research and development are the lifeblood of growing, competitive businesses. Since 1967, the AJCC Research Foundation has provided the seed money for well-designed scientific investigations related to high-priority areas affecting the Jersey breed of dairy cattle:

  • What is unique and valuable about Jerseys?
  • What will be the effect of new technology for Jersey dairy businesses?
  • What research will be most helpful to owners of Jersey cattle?
  • What programs should take priority for Jersey breeders?

Dairy scientists have typically approached their work assuming that dairy cows are equal, regardless of breed. Studies focused on Jersey cattle—their breeding and management, and the marketing of their milk—have rarely been a priority of U.S. ag institutions. And that is where the AJCC Research Foundation comes in.

The Jersey breed in the United States owes its current vitality and bright prospects in large degree to strategic investments in basic and applied research sponsored by the AJCC Research Foundation.
