The Youth Livestock Projects are designed to promote personal growth and critical thinking in students. Engaging in these projects not only teaches valuable time management and responsibility, but also instills a sense of competitiveness while focusing on honesty, integrity, and respect. Understanding the needs and well-being of livestock teaches the importance of nurturing living beings and instills a deep sense of connection with the natural world. These projects offer opportunities to learn about animal selection and gain general knowledge about the livestock industry. Participants also get a chance to interact with current industry leaders, providing potential benefits throughout their time in 4-H and into adulthood.
