Junior Meat Goat Producer Day Approaching
The KSU Junior Meat Goat Producer Day will be hosted on Saturday, March 30, 2019, in Weber Arena on the K-State campus in Manhattan. This one-day educational event is devoted to the selection and management of youth meat goat projects. All ages and knowledge levels are invited! K-State faculty members, graduate students, and guest speakers will cover topics including selection, meat science, nutrition, the state nomination process, herd health, reproduction, health and wellness, facilities and equipment, and showmanship.
An optional instructor-led YQCA session will also be held at the conclusion of the program. The early registration deadline was March 11, 2019. Families may continue registering online at http://bit.ly/ksuasiregister, but they will not be guaranteed a t-shirt. The cost is $20/person. All attendees, including youth and adults, need to register. Those who indicate they would like to participate in the optional YQCA certification will receive additional details and instructions via email in late March.
