‼️ ATTENTION LIVESTOCK EXHIBITORS ‼️
**Quality Counts is required for all RCFA livestock entries.**
If you’re showing this year and haven’t completed Quality Counts before—or you’re moving into a new age division—you’ll need to complete it before entering an animal.
📌 Your Quality Counts Number is required for fair entries, which are due 3/1/27.
💫 Plan ahead! Quality Counts takes several hours to complete, but it can be completed in multiple sessions. Parent/adult involvement is suggested.
💫 Divisions:
• Junior – Grades 3–5
• Intermediate – Grades 6–8
• Senior – Grades 9–12
Even if you’ve completed Quality Counts before, you must complete the next level when you move into a new age division.
💫 We highly recommend completing Quality Counts by 12/31/26 and selecting both FFA and 4-H so each organization has a record of your completion.
