I. Objectives
A. To increase availability of educational opportunities in the
4-H Animal Science Projects
B. To increase decision making skills through judging and grading
experiences.
C. To increase the knowledge of animals through
breeding and market evaluation and management information.
II. General Procedures
A. District Dairy and Livestock Days were started with the
intention of giving as many young people as possible an opportunity
to learn more about livestock and diary evaluation. This event
evolved into Area Animal Science Days to Broaden the scope of
members enrolled in the 4-H Animal Science Projects.
B. These Days
are focused on the learning experience rather than the contests.
C. FFA members are urged to participate as individuals, not
teams, in the Livestock Judging Contest. The Dairy Judging contest
is restricted to 4-H members because of large number of participants.
D. Activities and offerings may vary at each area site depending
on the host county facilities and resources.
E. Awards
- Awards are presented to individuals, whether 4-H or FFA,
in Junior and Senior categories. Junior members are designated
as anyone in grades 3 - 8.
- Horse project awards are divided into 3 grade categories.
Beginners grades 3 - 6, Juniors grades 7 - 9, Seniors grades
10 -13.
- Livestock awards are presented to individuals, not teams.
Team emphasis is only to identify the top 4-H individuals in
two or three counties in each district who will be eligible
to compete in the State 4-H Livestock Judging Contest held later
in the year.
- Team and individual awards are presented in
the Dairy Contest.
- Team and individual awards are presented
in the project activities as deemed appropriate.
