Livestock
This event is designed to teach students the desirable trait of livestock today. Students must observe details, see individual animals in the context of a class and make generalizations of individual traits to the industry, be knowledgeable of external anatomy, market and performance standards, performance data, breed character, make logical decisions and use generally accepted industry terminology. Students will be able to select livestock that will satisfy the demands of the consumer. 

Beef cattle, sheep and swine are evaluated for market values and desirable physical traits.  Team members also rank livestock for breeding purposes, using observed physical characteristics and performance data.

State winning team advances to National competition that is held during the National FFA Convention the end of October.
