The various AgriIndustries food production plants utilize and train about 100 inmates daily in all areas of food production technology. The food production industry is the largest employer in New Jersey, and inmates receive training and experience that may qualify them to gain employment when they leave the prison system. AgriIndustries operates six dairy and crop farms as well as three food processing plants statewide, supplying Corrections, Human Services, Distribution Center, and Agriculture -- with milk, beef, turkey, pork and vegetable products. The objective of the AgriIndustries Revolving Fund, established in 1977, is to offer products to the departments at a savings. AgriIndustries stresses a strong work ethic and promotes sound work habits among offenders, providing programs that have been shown to reduce recidivism. All AgriIndustries are self-supporting and operate without appropriated funds. Annual revenues equal approximately $9 million, with annual savings of approximately $1 million in food costs.
