Nine 4-H and FFA Youth Meet Excellence Criteria for Livestock Carcass Quality
The 2023 Chouteau County 4-H and FFA livestock carcass contest took place at Pioneer Meats in Big Timber. A total of 81 Chouteau County animals were evaluated for carcass quality by Mark King from MSU Extension Sweet Grass County. The purpose of the carcass contest is to teach youth how to correctly select, feed and finish livestock based on carcass data. If carcass criteria are met, youth can be confident they are producing a quality product that is safe, nutritious and good tasting to the consumer.
