Kansas Junior Producer Days Scheduled

Submitted by Lexie Hayes

The 2019 Kansas Junior Producer Days have been scheduled!  Junior Swine Producer Day will be hosted on March 9, 2019, with Junior Meat Goat Producer Day being March 30, 2019. Both junior day programs will be in the Department of Animal Sciences and Industry's Weber Hall on the K-State campus.  These events are one-day educational opportunities for youth, parents, agents, and project leaders to learn about various aspects of livestock project selection and management.

An optional Youth for the Quality Care of Animals (YQCA) session will be held at the conclusion of both junior days.  This will be an opportunity for youth to obtain their YQCA certification through an instructor-led session. The Kansas State Fair Grand Drive and KJLS will require all exhibitors to be YQCA certified for the 2019 shows.  Please watch the K-State Youth Livestock Program website and Facebook page for registration details! Families will have the option to mail in their junior day registration, or complete it online.
