Project DescriptionBeef

Beef Project is an excellent way to learn about an important
industry in Montana and the rest of the nation. Through this
project, you can learn about all aspects of the beef industry, either by directly caring for a calf or by learning about beef through the
4-H achievement program in each level. You may raise a market
calf or manage a breeding animal at any level. Youth wishing to enroll in Market Beef or Breeding Beef must also be enrolled in
Level 1, 2, or 3. If you enroll in independent study, you are expected to have already completed the three levels of the beef project and have set some learning goals for your independent work.
