It is never too early to learn! Junior producers are always welcome at BQA trainings and those fourteen and over are encouraged to become BQA certified. Many juniors sell animals at meat animal auctions at their county fairs and it is important they raise their animals following BQA guidelines to ensure their buyers receive safe, nutritious beef that has been raised responsibly. Junior producers of all ages are encouraged to participate in any youth BQA educational programs that are held through their local county 4-H or junior breed association.
