Frequently Asked Questions

Confident horse handling matters most. Riding experience helps for some roles but is not required for every placement.

Breeding and stud farms, training and boarding stables, and working ranches, depending on availability.

Both are welcome — we match your background to operations that suit either performance or working-horse environments.

Agriculture J-1 placements are generally up to 12 months, and may be extended to 18 months in qualifying cases.
