The Youth Livestock Show Ethics and Animal Care Workshop is designed to certify students to meet the mandatory certification requirements that will be in effect for the 2024 Florida State Fair. Certifications are valid for three (3) Fair seasons, not three calendar years.

It is important that the exhibitors understand:

  • The importance of ethics in youth livestock projects
  • Proper animal handling and management practices
  • The difference between animal welfare and animal rights
  • How to become an ambassador for animal agriculture
  • Promote and sell animals to prospective buyers in the Livestock Market Auction
ALL Youth Exhibitors (except Pullet and Poultry Exhibitors ages 5-7) WHO ARE ENTERED IN THE 2024 SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR YOUTH SHOWS MUST HAVE COMPLETED THE ETHICS TRAINING WORKSHOP OR HAVE A CURRENT ETHICS NUMBER BEFORE January 1 TO SHOW AN ANIMAL AT THE 2025 SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR.

**NOTE: While most Florida fairs have adopted this ethics program, the rules governing the exhibitors differ from fair to fair. It is the exhibitors' responsibility to make sure they are in compliance with EACH particular fair where they are showing an animal.
