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.
