Kansas Junior Sheep & Beef Producer Days

Registration is now open for Kansas Junior Sheep Producer Day and Kansas Junior Beef Producer Day!

The K-State Youth Livestock Program, K-State Research & Extension, and the K-State Department of Animal Science and Industry will be hosting two junior producer days in March 2018. We invite you to participate in Junior Sheep Producer Day and Junior Beef Producer Day! These are biennial events, with swine and meat goat days held in odd years and the beef and sheep programs held in even years.

Specie producer days are held to provide educational material and hands-on experiences for youth, parents, leaders, and extension agents. Various speakers share information on topics such as selection, nutrition, showmanship, fitting, reproduction, feeding, and disease control. Talks, demonstrations, hands-on activities, and door prizes are present at all events.  Beef and Sheep days are held in the even years and Swine and Goat days are held in the odd years.

*Education materials from previous events are located on the Education Materials page to the left.
