4-H and FFA Validation for the 2021 market barrows are now underway.

All validation tags must be ordered on line on the Springlake-Earth FFA website at www.springlake-earth.ffnow.org . Only exhibitors and their families should complete this form as to insure a communication link between the validation committee and the exhibitor.

Online forms are now available.There needs to be some discussion concerning breeding stock.

1. ALL ewes and does MUST order corresponding breeding or whether dam/doe tags, even if it is “county only”.

2. Registration papers on required validations MUST be presented prior to validation.

The cost of the tags will be $25 for tags ordered during the regular orders, and $35/tag for late orders. Tags must be paid for at the time of ordering, and a $25 late fee will be assessed after 30 days.

Validation must be completed during the month of November for barrows.

Exhibitors are encouraged to review the state ethics program and declare at the time of ordering tags that they have read, understand, and agree to abide by the policies outlined.

Should exhibitors need additional information, they may contact the local FFA adviser, 4-H agent, or by calling the Ag office at Springlake-Earth High School at 806-257-3310, extension 417.
