Youth dairy judging programs are designed to help youth improve their cattle evaluation, but also provide the opportunity to develop excellent communication skills. Members of dairy judging teams often become lifelong friends and share invaluable experiences through team practices and travel to competitions. Local dairy judging teams (both 4-H and FFA) are invited to the North Carolina Youth State Dairy Judging contest, typically held in April. From this contest, the first and second place 4-H teams will have the opportunity to train and compete at contests like the All-American Intercollegiate and Youth Dairy Judging Contest and the National Youth Dairy Judging Contest held in conjunction with the World Dairy Expo in Madison, WI each year in October. These youth represent North Carolina at national contests thanks to coaching support from extension agents and financial support from the North Carolina Dairy Youth Foundation.
