Since 1928, the National FFA Organization, formerly known as Future Farmers of America, has been dedicated to agricultural education. Today, there are more than 550,000 members in 7,498 chapters throughout all 50 states as well as 5,000,000 alumni around the country. The contents of this book were reviewed and approved by Dr. Clint Rusk, associate professor of the youth development and agricultural education department at Purdue University, in accordance with industry standards. Daniel and Samantha Johnson (Phelps, WI) have collaborated on a number of rural-living guidebooks, including The Field Guide to Horses and How to Raise Rabbits. Both are 4-H alumni and live on the family farm, Fox Hill Farm, in far northern Wisconsin. Samantha is a certified horse show judge and raises purebred Welsh Mountain ponies and Dutch, Holland Lop, and Netherland Dwarf rabbits. Daniel is a professional photographer whose work can be seen at www.foxhillphoto.com.
Ride, October 2007"Approved by the FFA, this guide will prove
invaluable to a young person who is just becoming involved in
raising and caring for a horse." ANIMAL PEOPLE,
animalpeoplenews.org, Oct. 29, 2007"The utilitarian titles and the
Future Farmers of America logo on the covers of How To Raise
Chickens, How To Raise Cattle, and How To Raise Horses conceal and
camouflage a wealth of indications inside about how profoundly
animal advocacy is beginning to influence animal agriculture."
Tack 'N Togs Merchandising, April 2007"An essential resource for
newcomers as well as veterans."
