Young Producers Program

Sign Up Today

Since 1923, Intermountain Farmers Association has played a big part in the care and feeding of animals throughout the West. And from those beginnings, IFA has recognized the significant impact raising animals can have on the developing values and character of young people. That’s why IFA created the Young Producers Program—a program specifically designed to encourage youth to learn and practice correct principles of feeding and caring for animals.

Participant Eligibility and Benefits

Youth between the ages of 8 and 18, who raise an animal and practice care for showing, competing, or breeding purposes, are eligible. Participants can look forward to a customized cap, incentive vouchers, and a membership card that allows certain privileges throughout the year—not to mention the rewards that come with raising and caring for their own animals.

Projects

Your project can range from a fill breeding program to competive showing, or it might be as basic as caring for animals as approved by your local IFA Country Store Manager. He or she can provide you with basic feeding, care, and nutritional information for most animal species. We also encourage Young Producers to learn all they can by talking with local farmers, ranchers, and veterinarians, and by joining organizations such as 4-H, FFA, or other associations and clubs.

Program Procedure

• Register for the IFA Young Producers Program at any IFA Country Store or here.
• When your packet arrives you can use the enclosed discount vouchers immediately.

• Your local IFA Store has a form to help you organize you receipts if you need one.
