Animal Sciences – Swine

Description

More information coming soon!When youth have a passion for animals, the 4-H Swine Project provides a great opportunity to explore their interest. From judging contests and visual presentations to showing market hogs or commercial gilts, 4-H’ers can participate in aspects of the project with or without owning swine.

The project teaches animal husbandry including selecting, feeding, managing, and marketing of swine. Developing teamwork, responsibility, and decision- making alongside both animals and people is unique to the livestock program experience. Hobbies or careers in animal agriculture enable utilization of these lifelong skills and project mastery.
