Youth in Agriculture highlights the important contributions that youth and farm families make to Missouri. Young people involved in Youth in Agriculture learn valuable lessons in leadership, economics and the tried-and-true ethics of hard work and perseverance. The program also awards thousands of dollars of scholarships to Missouri farm youth every year. Over 315 scholarships have been awarded since 1992 totaling more than $230,000 and representing 80 percent of the counties in Missouri.
“Youth in Agriculture” Day will take place on August 22 with the Sale of Champions starting at 3 pm in the Lowell Mohler Assembly Hall.
The Missouri State Fair does not require a premise identification number to show or exhibit livestock. |
