Cimarron Valley Livestock Series is an educational program designed for 4-H and FFA members: Livestock shows have proven to be an educational event for 4-H participants in developing life skills. The benefits of livestock shows include social relations, character, family exposure to competition, exposure to cultures, and finance for educations.
Life skills developed as youth have a direct impact on their careers. Youth livestock projects and team
events help teach and develop life skills such as a good work ethic, responsibility, time management, decision making, critical thinking, oral and written communication, record keeping, team work and problem solving. Successfully, implementing these skills in their lives of our youth better prepare them for future educational and career opportunities.
Most youth have a natural affinity to and curiosity about livestock. Using livestock as a tool, we can provide our future leaders with opportunities to develop life skills while also making them a more informed consumer. Additionally, those individuals who seek a career in the livestock industry will gain a great deal of knowledge and experience through Animal Science educational opportunities.
