Meat Animal Quality Assurance

Every 4-H youth selling a market animal at the fair is a meat producer. Market Animal Quality Assurance (MAQA) is a program designed to educate youth on proper animal care, management, welfare, and husbandry practices.  All youth involved in the market animal sale are required to attend an MAQA training session.
