Junior Fair Market Beef and Showmanship Judging

This event is a judging competition for youth involved in beef and beef feeder projects. Beef cattle will be evaluated in the Farm Progress Arena based on functionality, structure, balance, and attractiveness. Exhibitors are required to have attended and completed educational project meetings throughout the year. The friendships these young participants forge can last a lifetime, and the knowledge and leadership skills they gain will help them become outstanding professionals. Please support these youths in this area by attending the event, applauding their efforts, and congratulating them on their hard work.

Even if you’re knee-deep in farm work, you can still enjoy the show! Watch it live on our YouTube channel.
