  1. The primary purpose of a breed association is to promote the breed.  Most breed associations provide a record keeping and registration service for their members to define pedigrees.  Many also provide record keeping for production record keeping.  The holstein association keeps track of milk, fat, protein production while the angus association keeps track of birth weights, weight per day of age, weaning weights, yearling weights, etc.  They can preform many other functions such as assistance in marketing, monitoring genetic defects, etc.


  2. To ensure the breed is properly 'developed and maintained

    to maintain the ' blood line' is 'pure'.

  3. it is like a watch dog group to make sure everything with the breed is being done

  4. We raise a few Quarter horses, this is a good sample of what a breed association does.

    The AQHA Mission Statement

    ● To record and preserve the pedigrees of the Australian Quarter Horse while maintaining the

       integrity of the breed.

    ● To provide beneficial services for its Members, which embrace and encourage Australian

       Quarter Horse ownership and participation.

    ● To develop diverse educational programs, materials and curriculum that will position the

       AQHA as one of the leading organizations in the Australian equine industry.

    ● To generate growth of AQHA membership via the marketing, promotion, advertising and the

       publicity of the Australian Quarter Horse.

  5. to bad my dad isnt here tight now(hes an ag teacher) but to classify the animals in groups i think idk soryy

  6. Breed clubs provide information to the public about their breed. Club members agree to a code of ethics overseen by the club and a list of breeders is usually available to help people find a reputable breeder. The people involved in these clubs often have been involved with the breed for many years and have breeding, training, and showing experience that they are willing to share.

    These clubs promote the benefits and well-being of their particular breed and usually offer seminars and activities to discuss showing, training, breeding, and hereditary health issues. Most breed clubs also schedule shows or competitions in various sports specifically for the breed.
