American Jersey Cattle Association, the oldest dairy breed association in the U.S.

The American Jersey Cattle Association (UsJersey) has 2,107 active members as of May 2016 and provides services to over 3,000 Jersey dairy farmers each year. The membership elects a 12-person Board of Directors and President.

More About Us
Animal identification +

For the power to make matings that maximize lifetime profitability while controlling inbreeding, you need ancestry. For that, you need the services delivered by the American Jersey Cattle Association.

Genetics +

While the AJCA's Constitutional mission is "to improve and promote the Jersey breed," the objective is to make owning Jerseys more profitable than owning any other breed of dairy cattle. Today's record-breaking levels of Jersey production and owner satisfaction are, in large part, a function of the Association's genetic improvement tools and programs.
