MADISON — During the 2018 Area Animal Science Days in Kewaunee, Clark and Lafayette Counties, youth judged breeding and market classes of swine, beef, sheep and, in some locations, meat goats. Youth also answered a sets of species questions and seniors judges gave oral reasons on selected classes.
Congratulations again to all participants in this year’s regional contests. The top Senior and Junior Teams from each site earned the opportunity to compete at the State 4-H Livestock Judging Contest held on Monday, July 23rd at the UW-Madison Stock Pavilion.
The contest site has pictures and scores from the event. http://fyi.uwex.edu/youthlivestock/programs/area-animal-science-days/
