Muskingum County 4-H Quality Assurance Study Guide
The following information is provided to assist the youth livestock exhibitor in studying for the Quality Assurance (QA) test. In no way does this guide imply or offer the only information that will be included on the QA test. The majority of the testing material is taken directly from the project record books and supplemental resource handbooks. Who can take the Quality Assurance Test? All youth 12-14 years of age (4-H age) may take a QA test designed for their age group. If they pass the test with a score of 70% or greater, the youth will be certified in QA until they turn 15 years old. All youth 15-18 years of age (4-H age) may take a QA test designed for their age group. If they pass the test with a score of 70% or greater, the youth will be certified in LQA for the remainder of their Junior Fair years. Youth are only permitted to take one test per calendar year. If a youth does not pass the QA test, they will be required to attend a QA program to gain certification. Youth must pre-register to take the test on designated testing dates.
Testing Categories (Primary Project Area): Large Animals: Beef, Dairy, Goat, Sheep, Swine Small Animals: Rabbit, Poultry General Testing Topics Include:
• Husbandry • Housing • Animal Identification • Biosecurity • Feeding • Medications • Injections and Routes of Administration • The Ten Good Production Practices • Animal Diseases
• Animal Welfare • Handling and Transportation of Animals • Record Keeping • Making ethical decisions • Regulatory Agencies and laws • Environment • Consumer and Food Safety • Proper storage and disposal of medications, feeds, supplies, etc • Drug Labels

• Does the practice break FDA, state or federal laws?• Does the practice harm the animal?• Does the practice falsely represent the animal?• Do you have to lie to cover up the practice?• Would the public be upset if they knew about the practice?• Are the food products from this animal marketable? • Would you eat the food produced from this animal?
Ethical Decisions – ASK YOURSELF…

Animal Well-Being
• Daily Observation– Keep track of observations looking for patterns– Ensures prompt reaction to needs– Animal production gives us direction!
• Average Daily Gain (ADG)• Feed Efficiency (FE)• Physical Evaluation• Disease • Behavior Abnormalities
![Page 9: Muskingum County 4 H Quality Assurance Study Guide · • The Ten Good Production Practices • Animal Diseases • Animal Welfare • Handling and Transportation of Animals ... •](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081611/5f07f5517e708231d41f9d7a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is welfare?
Animal welfare means how an animal is coping withthe conditions in which it lives. An animal is in a goodstate of welfare if (as indicated by scientific evidence)it is healthy, comfortable, well nourished, safe, able toexpress innate behavior, and if it is not suffering fromunpleasant states such as pain, fear, and distress.
![Page 10: Muskingum County 4 H Quality Assurance Study Guide · • The Ten Good Production Practices • Animal Diseases • Animal Welfare • Handling and Transportation of Animals ... •](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081611/5f07f5517e708231d41f9d7a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How do we measure welfare?
1. Freedom from Hunger and Thirst• Ready access to water and a diet to maintain health and vigor
2. Freedom from Discomfort• Provide an appropriate environment including shelter and comfortable resting area
3. Freedom from Pain, Injury or Disease • Prevent pain and provide rapid diagnosis and treatment of disease
4. Freedom to Express Normal Behavior • Provide sufficient space, proper facilities and appropriate company of animal’s own
kind5. Freedom from Fear and Distress
• Ensure conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering

Good Production Practice #8
Willful Acts of Abuse
Willful acts of neglect or abuse are unacceptable and will NOT be tolerated!
Defined as acts outside accepted practices that purposefully cause pain and suffering, including but not limited to
• Purposely applying prods to sensitive parts of animal• Hitting or beating animal• Failure to provide minimal food, water, shelter, and care that results in
significant harm or death to animals
![Page 12: Muskingum County 4 H Quality Assurance Study Guide · • The Ten Good Production Practices • Animal Diseases • Animal Welfare • Handling and Transportation of Animals ... •](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081611/5f07f5517e708231d41f9d7a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Animal Well-Being
Aggressive handling includes• Overuse, improper use, of electric prods
• AVOID use of electric prods • Loud noises and yelling• Grabbing and pulling ears and tails• Grabbing wings and/or feathers• Moving animals too fast• Moving too many animals per group• Overcrowding animals in chutes, ramps, and alleyways• Rough physical contact

Animal Well-Being
Use best animal handling and movement practices for the good well-being of animal and safety of handler
Improperly handled animals become distressed which can lead to• Physical injury to animal• Physical injury to handler• Increase in incidence of non-ambulatory animals• Increase in time to load and unload animals• Reduced growth rates and performance• Significantly contributing to carcass shrink, trim loss and poor meat quality

Animal Well-Being
• Animals do not always understand our intentions• They do not know why they are being handled or moved• Creates fear and/or negative reaction to handler
• Animals with regular, positive interactions with people typically are less fearful and easier to handle
• Move animals at normal walking pace
• Avoid aggressive handling which may lead to animals becoming non-ambulatory due to injury, stress or fatigue

Animal Well-Being
• Willful acts of abuse – Unacceptable on any farm or in any show barn! Right versus Wrong!
• Just because another person is doing it?• Just because we know the person doing it? • Just because you respect that person? • THINK! Then ASK!
– If you observe willful acts of abuse you should stop the situation• If you feel threatened then tell someone confidentially and let them handle the
situation

Antibiotic Use in Food Animal Production
Principles for responsible antibiotic use:• Take appropriate steps to decrease the need for antibiotics• Assess advantages and disadvantages• Use antibiotics only when they provide measurable benefits• Fully implement the management practices described for responsible
use of animal health products into daily operation• Have a working veterinarian/client/patient relationship (VCPR) and
follow the responsible antibiotic use guidelines

Antibiotic Use in Food Animal Production
Guidelines for use:• Use a veterinarian to help you make decisions• Treat only when there is a clinical diagnosis• Treat only ill or at-risk animals - the fewest number• Carefully review and justify treatment when dealing with potential antibiotic
resistant infections• It is illegal to mix together medications by a producer• Handle and dispose of animal health products properly to minimize
environmental exposure

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has revised the rules and provided guidance on the use of medically important antibiotics in food animals. As of January 1, 2017, the use of medically important antibiotics* in food animals will be governed by the Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD), a prescription-like process for uses in or on feed, and drinking water. These revisions will affect all livestock owners.

Veterinary Feed Directive
• Antibiotics used in feed or water will only be available for purchase when accompanied by a veterinarian's order (VFD or prescription).
• Owners or caretakers of food-producing animals will simply need to work with a veterinarian and establish a Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship (VCPR) to ensure that the animals are receiving the most appropriate treatment.
![Page 45: Muskingum County 4 H Quality Assurance Study Guide · • The Ten Good Production Practices • Animal Diseases • Animal Welfare • Handling and Transportation of Animals ... •](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081611/5f07f5517e708231d41f9d7a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Production uses such as “growth promotion” and “feed efficiency” of medically important antibiotics are no longer allowed. The FDA no longer considers these uses acceptable, and any production uses of medically important antibiotics will be illegal.
