Overview

Mission

Education and promotion of farming

What it reported doing in 2025

The association holds an exposition that promotes the existence of family beef farming. The exposition is educational with the goal to prepare future young farmers and educate the public as well as provide the sale of livestock.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
