He became USDA’s first National Program Leader for Aquaculture. According to Jim L. Avery, president of the World Aquaculture Society (WAS), from 1996-1997 Broussard served as president of WAS, and he was "instrumental in establishing aquaculture as a presence within the USDA from the time he first joined the organization in 1985".
Following the passage or the 2008 Farm Bill, Broussard led the establishment of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), a new agency within the USDA mandated by the bill. He was NIFA's first Deputy Director for Agriculture and Natural Resources, and in 2014 he became Associate Director for Programs, the agency's science portfolio. Broussard also led "a number of complex, highly visible, and politically sensitive programs established in the 2008 and 2014 Farm Bills. These programs included the Specialty Crop Research Initiative, the Organic Agriculture Research and Extension Initiative, the Beginning Farmers and Ranchers Initiative, the Biomass Research and Development Initiative and the Centers of Excellence and Commodity Board provisions."
In the 1980s Broussard was on the Texas A&M teaching staff, and was an aquaculture advisor in the Philippines on a USAID project. In a 1989 article in The New York Times on the rising popularity of cultivated catfish, Broussard said, ''It's a myth that only Southerners like it."
Meryl C. Broussard, Jr. (1950–2019) was an American civil servant and executive of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), in the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA). He was "the first full-time national program leader for aquaculture in USDA", and he was named an "Unsung Hero" of both NIFA and USDA. In 2015 he was inducted into the NIFA Hall of Fame.
