Minnesota 4-H Livestock Quality Assurance and Ethics Policy
All youth participating as a State Fair 4-H livestock exhibitor in beef, dairy, sheep, swine, poultry, rabbits, meat and dairy goat and lama must have completed the a Livestock Quality Assurance and Ethics workshop. Certification is good for three fair seasons. The level of training required is determined by the grade of the youth at the time the training takes place.
Note: Since 2006, pre-State Fair-age 4-Hers are recommended to be certified. Some counties do, however, require certification of pre-State Fair age 4-Hers for participation at the county fair. It should be recognized that county policies might be stricter than state policy.
