Goat Production Entrepreneurship/Placement–Emily Beal (OH)

Emily Beal of the Miami East FFA Chapter in Casstown, Ohio, began her goat operation when she was 8 years old.  Her parents purchased a starter herd of 22 head for her. Since that time, she has worked to transition her herd into high quality, genetically sound show wethers and wether dams. In the future, Beal would like to become a spokesperson for agriculture. She is supported by her parents, Melissa and Johnn, and her FFA advisor, Marie Carity. This award is sponsored by Tractor Supply Company.
