Association supports Poultry Science recruiting

The Department of Poultry Science has received a donation of $16,551 from the Southeastern Poultry and Egg Association’s Harold E. Ford Foundation.

The foundation, named for a former executive with the U.S. Poultry and Egg Association, promotes advancement of the poultry industry through education and training. Department Head Walter Bottje said the gift will help support recruitment efforts such as the annual Poultry Science Youth Conference, the youth broiler show at the Arkansas State Fair and in-service training for faculty.

The Harold E. Ford Foundation was founded in 1995 and has disbursed nearly $1 million dollars to poultry science departments across the nation.
