Livestock Judging Team

A Livestock Judging Team is a group of students who evaluate and compare different animals, such as cattle, sheep, and pigs, based on specific traits like conformation, health, and overall quality. They learn to assess these animals objectively and make decisions about which ones are the best for breeding or production. The team competes by giving reasons for their choices, demonstrating their knowledge and critical thinking. This activity develops skills in evaluation, communication, and understanding livestock production, and is often connected to agricultural education and careers in animal science.
