YQCA

We will be having a Youth for the Quality Care of Animals (YQCA) class on February 19, 2022 in Kiowa, KS. The class will begin at 9:00 am and conclude at 11:00 am. YQCA is designed as an annual education and certification program focused on food safety, animal well-being and character awareness for youth producing and/or showing pigs, beef cattle, dairy cattle, sheep, goats, market rabbits, and poultry. The program has been designed by extension specialists and national livestock program managers to ensure it is accurate, current, and relevant to the needs of the animal industry and shows and is appropriate for youth.

YQCA

For the 3rd year in a row, we have a sponsor to cover the registration. Please call the Extension Office (620) 886.3971 for enrollment. The deadline to enroll in the class is February 11, 2022. YQCA is a requirement if you plan to exhibit livestock at state-level shows.
