About this Event

Extension Agents, Volunteer Leaders, & Agriculture Teachers Interested in fielding Meat or Livestock Judging Teams in 2025 … Bring your students to Gainesville for one trip as the University of Florida Department of Animal Sciences will host two concurrently running judging clinics.

Students are not able to participate in both and must select one or the other.

The Meat Judging program will be held at the UF Animal Sciences Building in the Meat Processing Center. The Livestock Judging program will be held at the UF Horse Teaching Unit.

Participants (youth and adult) in the Meat Judging Clinic will need to dress warmly, wear close-toed shoes, and bring hard hats and frocks. If needed, contact Kyle Mendes to possibly borrow UF equipment. The Horse Teaching Unit is a covered open-air facility, so be prepared for weather variations.

The program is targeted to 4-H and FFA youth ages 11-18 (4-H Intermediates & Seniors, FFA Middle & High School), leaders/coaches, teachers/advisors, and Extension Agents. There will be a $35 per person registration fee for both youth and adults.

Both clinics will start at 2 pm on Friday, January 24th and again at 8 am on Saturday, January 25th. There will be a dinner at the HTU for participants in both programs (included in the registration fee) Friday at 6:30pm. The program will be over at the conclusion of the meal on Friday and by noon on Saturday.
