Membership
Breeders of purebred Boer goats are truly making an investment in becoming seedstock producers for the Boer goat industry. As such, it is very important goat breeders in this segment of the industry identify closely with their breed's association to help shape the direction of their breed and to be aware of current developments.

The obvious, immediate reason for membership is to receive membership fees (non-members pay twice the fee members pay). Members receive many other services non-members do not in addition to being able to vote on vital breed and industry issues. If you are not already a member of the American Boer Goat Association, download a membership application above, or contact the association office at (325) 486-2242 if you have additional questions.

When you have completed the application, send it with the proper fees to the association. A membership card will be issued and you will receive official notice you have become a member of the ABGA.

Active memberships are annual memberships issued by the Association in the name of an individual, farm or ranch, partnership or corporation. The member must pay annual dues annually. Members also receive "The Boer Goat", a six times a year magazine with association and industry information for ABGA members.

Active members may attend all face to face meetings of the Association and have voting rights at all official membership meetings.

An active or junior member also saves in service fees charged for registration and transfer of Boer goats.
