State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest

Dylan Muench and Ashtin Koerber at the State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest

The Missouri State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest was held Aug. 20 at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia. Contestants placed six classes and gave two sets of reasons. The top 3 individuals in each breed received cash prizes sponsored by the Missouri breed associations. The top 10 individuals in each division received rosettes from the Missouri State Fair, and the top 3 individuals in each division received a plaque from the Missouri State Fair and supporters of the contest. Contestants, their families, and exhibitors who provided cattle for the event were the guests at a Junior Dairymen’s Barbeque sponsored by Midwest Dairy Association, Missouri State Fair, Missouri Cattlemen’s Association, MFA, Dairy Farmers of America, and Hiland Dairy. The Missouri 4-H Dairy Judging Team is supported by Monsanto Company, FCS Financial, the Missouri Holstein Association and the Missouri Dairy Association in partnership with the Missouri 4-H Foundation, and thanks all their sponsors for their support.

Participants in the contest from Cape Girardeau County were Dylan Muench and Ashtin Koerber, both from the Progressive 4-H club.
