* County offices can accept paper ID sheets for their own record keeping but will not be accepted as a form of identification for State Fair. Each exhibitor may
nominate a total, between 4-H and FFA, as follows: Market Beef (10), Market Lambs (20), Market Swine (40), and Market Goats (20).
** BNC = Breeding Nomination Card. Animals are nominated (formerly known as identified) by the dates above.
*** Entries must be in by the dates dictated by each individual show to be eligible for exhibition at these events. In the case of State Fair, the August 10th deadline
will serve as the declaration for a nominated animal to be shown in either 4-H or FFA. If an animal is entered to be shown in FFA at State Fair, it is no longer
eligible for AKSARBEN. If an animal is entered in FFA, but isn’t exhibited, that animal is not eligible to be exhibited at AKSARBEN. If an animal is entered in
4-H at State Fair, but is not exhibited, that animal is eligible for AKSARBEN. AKSARBEN is a 4-H livestock show.

1. Submit an EID tag order for State Fair/AKSARBEN livestock (beef, swine, sheep, goat) entries.
2. Submit a regular tag order for county only livestock (beef, swine, sheep, goat) entries and submit an EID tag order for county only livestock (beef, swine,
