4H Livestock Shows Can Help Prepare Kids Prepare for Future in Agriculture

The Swine Show started the 4H livestock shows Wednesday morning and Regional Radio news was able to talk to one of the 4h-ers who shows just about every animal at the Christian County Fair. 14 year old Tanner Mickey who's with the 4H Clover Club has grown up on a livestock farm, and enjoys working with the animals. Mickey gave some insight on what goes into getting a pig ready for show, and what pigs he and his brother were showing.

Mickey also shows sheep and cows and hopes the skills he's learning through 4H will help him take over and succeed running his family's farm one day.

Mickey was recently on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show Live at the Christian County Fair.
