Where’s the Beef?
Beef of all breeds “moo”ved around the Pavilion at the Southern Iowa Fair for the 2023 4-H & FFA Beef Show. Show day began extra early for 4-H & FFA members on Thursday morning July 20th. The 4-H and FFA members began the day by washing, drying, and fitting their animals for the judge. They knew a lot was at “steak” as they proudly led their cattle to the judge. Austin Brandt began judging and sorting through breeding and market beef to choose the top winners.
