Ohio youth enrolled in market beef projects will have the opportunity to participate in a program
rewarding cattle for traits that add value to a market beef animal, in a real world scenario.
The Beef Performance and Carcass Quality contest will be conducted once again as part of the 2010 Junior
Beef Show at the Ohio State Fair.
Cattle will be shown in a separate live show prior to the Junior Market Beef Show during the Fair.
Cattle must be weighed and identified between Dec. 1, and Jan.15, at various locations around the state.
Youth can enter as many as eight steers and/or heifers. County representatives should contact Carrie
Pickworth to obtain eartags and weigh sheets.
