23 the final decision. INTERFERENCE WITH JUDGES: If an exhibitor in any way, whether in person or by agent, or servant, interferes with the judges during their adjudication, or shows any disrespect to them, the ASF or the ALSA event in which he or she is participating, the ASF Livestock Show Management may demand a proper apology from such exhibitor, and such action will exclude him or her from competition and from the ring and may also withhold from such exhibitors any premiums that may have been awarded.

PROTESTS: All protests must be in writing and accompanied by a deposit of $100.00, cash or certified check, which will be forfeited if protest is not sustained. Such protest must state plainly the cause of the complaint or appeal and must be delivered to the Livestock Department management of the ASF within two hours after the occasion for such protest. Any protest as to the eligibility on account of age of breeding of animals must be filed with the ASF Livestock Management prior to the day on which they are to be judged. In this case the decision of the Breed Association of Record for the animal(s) in question will stand in accordance with the conclusion of Arkansas State Fair Livestock Management. Protest must be submitted either prior to judging or immediately after the conclusion of CLASS judging. Judging procedures will not be interrupted for protest investigation; and depending on the basis of the protest, a decision may be withheld until a thorough investigation is completed. In addition to the right to protest herein granted to exhibitor, the Arkansas State Fair reserves the right to take cognizance of fraud consummated or attempted in connection with an exhibit, and take such action as may be deemed just and proper, and as may be warranted in these premises. No protest or appeal based upon the statement that the judge or judges are incompetent will be considered by the ASF Livestock Department Management. All questions in dispute or difference not covered by these rules will be referred to the ASF Livestock Management, whose decision shall be final. The decision of Classifiers, Weigh Masters, Judges and Veterinarians shall not be subject to protest or appeal. INTERPRETATIONS AND VIOLATIONS OF RULES: The Arkansas State Fair reserves to its Livestock Department Management the final and absolute right to interpret these rules and arbitrarily settle and

24 determine all matters, questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of or connected with, or incident to the Arkansas State Fair; and the right to amend, interpret or add to these rules as its judgment may determine. An exhibitor who violates any of the rules will be subject to such penalty as the Livestock Department management may order. ATTESTING OF AWARDS: The judges, superintendent, and a clerk must sign the award book with awards entered after each show. The judge and superintendent should use special care to see that each award is properly entered in the award book. DISCOURTESY/DISOBEDIENCE: Any act of discourtesy or disobedience to Arkansas State Fair officials on the part of the exhibitor, parents or sponsors will disqualify exhibitor from the contest, and the owner shall forfeit their entrance and other fees. Any exhibitor, parent or sponsor who shall attempt to interfere with judges in the performance of their duties, or who shall make any false statement in regard to any animal exhibited or shall interfere with clerks and judges books shall be excluded from the competition and may be subject to other disciplinary actions. DELINQUENT ACTS: If an exhibitor is caught having any involvement in any delinquent act or being involved with a disqualified entry, they may be removed from the grounds forfeiting any further competition, awards, premiums, sale slots and/or proceeds.

49 INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FAIRS AND EXPOSITIONS NATIONAL CODE OF SHOW RING ETHICS Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship. Their conduct in this competitive environment hall, always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition to the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics, fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose on the local, county, state, provincial and national levels. All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in accordance with the rules adopted by the respective fairs and livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada. The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events: 1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited. 2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show officials. 3. Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows. 4. Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues. The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or other substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates with the animal entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules affect the animal s performance or appearance at the event. If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other sample taken from livestock

50 indicates the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie evidence such substance has been administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by the laboratory to which it is sent is the one taken from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedures of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the laboratory pertains to the sample taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to prove otherwise. At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian with the approval of the Official Show Veterinarian. 5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal s performance or alter its natural contour, confirmation, or appearance, except external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited. 6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited. 7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them. 8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person shall conspire with another person or persons to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to disciplinary action. 9. The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal s condition by an owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics. 10. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to have disciplinary action by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of Show Ring Ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the fair or livestock show. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceeding or disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any publication of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special notices to members. 11. The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics and understands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent that any action, which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of federal, state, or provincial statutes, regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such infractions.

64 JUNIOR ANGUS SHOW SPECIAL INFORMATION THE AMERICAN ANGUS ASSOCIATION, 3201 Frederick Avenue, St. Joseph, MO. will participate in premiums offered in individual classes for Junior Angus heifers, bred and owned heifers, bred and owned bulls, cow/calf pairs and registered Angus Steers as included in its standard show classifications, according to the premium schedule based on the number of head shown. The Association contributions will be included in the premium checks issued by the show. A minimum of fifteen (15) head must be shown in the Junior Angus classes to receive American Angus Association premium participation. The show is not required to have all classes to be eligible for premiums. Separate classes for bred and owned heifers may be held if the size of the show merits a separate class. Only bred and owned bulls may be counted in the numbers report for premium participation. To be eligible for Association premiums, the entries must be recorded in the sole name of the Junior exhibitor and the issue date on the registration certificate must conform to the individual show s requirements regarding ownership. The Association s contribution is included in the total premiums listed in each class. The animals must be judged by the American system of judging (they must be placed numerically and the ribbons and premiums awarded in the same manner.) The American Angus Association does not offer financial assistance or awards on any show judged under the Danish or group system of judging. Premiums from the Association are paid only to registered Angus cattle and only if the registration number is a part of the show report provided to the Association. Therefore, all cattle should be registered at the time of entry to make certain they receive the Association s portion of premiums. The Association does not pay a percentage on premiums offered in championship classes. An animal may be counted one time toward the total count for premium participation by the Association. Exhibitors must have the original registration certificate on each animal available for inspection at the show. Any animal, upon check-in, which does not have a legible tattoo corresponding to its registration certificate, is ineligible to show. Once disqualified due to an incorrect or illegible tattoo, animals cannot be re-tattooed and rechecked at the show. Any female shown with calf at side, calf must be the cow s most recent natural calf and the calf must be registered by show date and have the original registration certificate at check in. Only one person at a time shall lead animals into the show ring. Any product administered internally or used externally to alter the conformation and/or appearance of an animal for exhibition is prohibited. This includes the covering of white skin, false tail heads (or use of any false hair), use of graphite, powders, hemp or other similar substances externally and steroids, growth stimulants or artificial filling internally. Any animal found to be in violation will be barred from showing. The exhibition of cattle displaying false hair will not be allowed, with the exception of false tail switches. For an exhibitor to be eligible at shows for premium monies contributed by the American Angus Association, each exhibitor is subject to Part 3, Section IX of the Association s rules entitled Eligibility Conformation and Structure of Animals Presented for Exhibition. Included in this is rule 11: Effective July 1, 2004, at any show for which the American Angus Association appropriates funds toward the payment of premiums, no exhibitors, and individuals assisting exhibitors or member owners at such show be allowed to use any coloring agents, on any animal exhibited. The Association may adopt and implement various tests designed to monitor this prohibition, including but not limited to a white towel or white glove test. No aerosol cans or other pressurized containers will be allowed in designated make up areas. DNA MARKER OR BLOOD TYPE FOR PARENTAGE VERIFICATION -- Under the Association Rules, each animal for which entry application (registration) is received, may be subjected to a DNA marker type or blood type test to verify ACCURACY OF PARENTAGE as covered under Association Rules. Staff of the American Angus Association must supervise the collection of DNA or blood samples. Animals are often sampled at shows, fairs, or events where the American Angus Association contributes premiums or where Association personnel participate. If a recorded parent is excluded (as a parent) as a result of DNA or blood type, the owner may request, at his own expense, the Association to determine the actual parent. Failure to determine the sire and dam disqualifies the animal s eligibility in the Angus Herd Book, and the registration certificate becomes null and void.

The registration number and animal identification number (number branded on animal) of (1) each animal must be entered in an individual class, (2) the sire of each get-of-sire entry and (3) the dam of each produce-of-dam entry must be listed on the entry form of each animal entered. Entries that have not complied with rules one (1) and two (2) above will not be eligible to show, receive premium monies or earn points in the association s Register of Renown. Animals to be eligible to be shown in group classes must be entered and shown in individual classes. Entries will be listed numerically according to age (youngest first) in catalogs and judging schedules. Include animal identification number (number brand) as part of identification. When entering the arena for judging, the handlers will line cattle up numerically in same order. Judges will be allowed to comment on placings in selected classes when conditions permit. Each animal will be presented in the show ring in its natural conformation and structure without alteration or modification. Alteration or modification shall be defined to include any surgical or circulatory constriction including banding or other appearance change, save only branding, tattooing, foot trimming or dehorning. Injections of foreign substances internally for cosmetic purposes, steroids, growth hormones, or stimulants is prohibited. If, to the satisfaction of the ABBA staff, officers, executive committee or board of directors, any animal that has had its natural conformation and structure altered or been administered steroids, growth hormones or stimulants; then the said animal shall be ruled ineligible to compete until such time the Show Committee and owner/owners have reviewed the case. Any violators, both owner & fitter will be ineligible to exhibit cattle at ABBA Approved Shows for 5 years. If any exhibitor/owner/showman interferes in any way with the judge or shows disrespect to him or to the show in the ring, the exhibitor/owner/showman may be dismissed by the judge or show management from the ring. The management may withhold from each exhibitor/owner/showman any premium monies that may be awarded or take other steps deemed desirable. In cases where families, companies, corporations, etc. are operated as a unit under the same management but have cattle also registered in the name of the individual partners, said cattle, even though bearing a different ownership brand, are eligible to be shown in competition under the

83 firm name provided they have not been and will not be shown in the name of the individuals. Arkansas State Fair requires that all entries are made in the name of the owner. For females being shown in the three oldest classes, exhibitor must have a certificate of pregnancy issued by a licensed veterinarian to be presented to show officials at time of check in. The show reserves the right to perform pregnancy determination by palpation for females in the above classes at any given ABBA approved show if an official protest has been filed. For Fall Shows, the last class of females is required to have a calf at side. The only exemption from this rule will be cows that have already weaned a calf and the registration certificate of the calf MUST be presented to the judge. All bulls will be shown with a nose ring or nose restraint with lead attached. For bulls showing in the oldest class, exhibitor must have a certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian stating the bull has produced viable semen. This certificate must be available for inspection by the judge on request. This deals with the produce of dam classes and the Get-of-Sire classes: Embryo Produce of Dam Two animals from the show classes produced by one dam by embryo transfer either or both sexes may be represented. Group entries must be made in one exhibitor s name and must be made during entry process. No ownership requirement. Natural Produce of Dam Two natural born animals produced by one dam from the show classes, either or both sexes may be represented. No ownership requirement.. Get-of-Sire Four animals from at least two dams by one sire from the individual show classes, both sexes must be represented. No ownership requirement..

Calves must be shown and exhibited with their dams and said calves must not exceed 240 days of age on day of judging. The judge will be made aware by the ring steward of those cows whose calves are ineligible to show by this rule. Cattle will not be allowed to show if their switches have been balled or glitter applied to their skin. The owner of record of any registered animal entered in an ABBA-approved show and/or his/her agent, exhibitor, fitter, handler and/or representative releases ABBA and its representatives from any and all liability that seller/owner might claim as a result of injury of any kind sustained before, during, or after handling cattle for any ABBA board approved activity. For shows to remain approved point shows by ABBA, they must maintain a 20 head average for the previous two years. ALL animals MUST have a Birth Weight submitted to be eligible to show in ABBA Approved Shows The official ABBA rules and procedures governing showing and exhibiting of registered Brahman cattle supersede any rules printed in any show catalog In an attempt to insure that all animals receive an equal evaluation, classes with more than 30 entries may at the discretion of the Show Management and/or ABBA Officials be split by age as evenly as possible. Brands and registration papers will be checked during check in.

88 OPEN BRANGUS DIVISION 1004 MAY ARRIVE IN PLACE SHOW DATE RELEASE Tuesday, October 18 Tuesday, October 18 Wednesday, October 19 Thursday, October 20 All Day 8:00 AM Immediately following Junior Brangus Show 4:00 PM JUDGE: Doug Satree SUPERINTENDENT: Allan Beuerman SPECIAL RULES Animals must be registered with the International Brangus Breeders Association to be eligible to compete in Association-sponsored shows. Animals recorded in the IBBA appendix registry are disqualified. The registration certificates for each entry must be available for presentation to the Superintendent or Manager of the show at the time entries are verified prior to judging. Arkansas State Fair requires that the original registration certificates are presented at check in. Photocopies are not accepted. The IBBA, and its representatives, have the authority to require such tests as they deem necessary to verify the accuracy of the classification and pedigree of exhibited Brangus animals. Said authority shall extend to, and cover the enforcement of, all show rules as adopted by the IBBA. The registration number and animal identification number (brand or tattoo), birth date and sire of each animal entered in an individual class, and the sire of each entry, must be listed on the entry form of each animal entered. All calves exhibited at the side of a Brangus female must be registered with the IBBA and meet all rules required for show eligibility and inspections of exhibits. Animals eligible to be shown in group classes must be entered and shown in respective individual classes. Cows exhibited in the cow/calf classes are not eligible for the group classes. Prior to check-in, heads of breeding animals must be clipped of all hair (including topknots), and be free of scurs and/or slick spots. Any animal found to have scurs and/or slick spots, or evidence of incisions, surgical or otherwise, in the following areas: head, testicles, sheath, navel or dewlap; including scars from caesarean sections, will be disqualified from showing. Animals with illegal white (white in front of the navel) or any indication of brindling (a color pattern characterized by red streaks mingled with black) are ineligible for show. Any animal upon check-in, which does not have a legible tattoo or brand corresponding to its registration certificate, is ineligible to show. Once disqualified due to an incorrect or illegible tattoo/brand, animals cannot be re-tattooed and rechecked at the show. The brand/tattoo can be corrected and rechecked at the next available show. All bulls (shown as individual entry) must be shown with a nose ring or nose restraint with lead attached Any Brangus animal recorded in the IBBA Registry that has a Parentage Dispute listed in its first three-generation pedigree is ineligible for participation in Brangus shows and exhibitions. If the dispute is resolved, the listing will be removed from the pedigree and show eligibility will be restored.

89 In IBBA-sanctioned shows, no animal may be shown that has been artificially filled with any amount of liquid at any time once the animal enters the grounds of a show. The fitter or ranch entity involved with an animal being artificially filled will be banned from the show ring for one year and the animal will be disqualified from exhibition at that particular show. The official show veterinarian may administer liquids orally, if so needed, without disqualifying animal(s) from exhibition. Arkansas State Fair has strict guidelines regarding this rule and other penalties may apply. No animal may be shown that has had any foreign object glued to or otherwise attached in a manner so as to alter its conformation or change its appearance. Tail ties and hair nets used on the tail and switch are the only exception. Paint or coloring agents of any kind are not to be used on any animal exhibited at IBBA sponsored shows. The use of aerosol products will not be permitted in the line-up area for the show. Animals will be toweled in the line-up area prior to entering the show ring. Animals found in violation of these policies will be disqualified from the show ring. All Brangus bulls 15 months of age or older that are exhibited at IBBA sponsored shows must have passed a fertility examination given by a licensed veterinarian to be eligible to show. The results of this examination must be available at check in. Once a bull has a positive examination retesting is not required. All females 20 months of age or older exhibited at IBBA sanctioned shows, must have available at the time of check-in, a certificate of pregnancy issued by an accredited, non-owner veterinarian, or blood test results certificate. If the female is open due to being in an embryo transfer program, this fact must be verified in a written statement by a non-owner embryologist. If verification cannot be produced, the female may be allowed to participate if the exhibitor can produce a qualified veterinarian to examine the female at the show site and verify pregnancy. Entries that have not complied with all of the above rules will not be eligible to show, to receive premium monies, or earn points in the IBBA s Sire of the Year, Show Bull of the Year, and Show Heifer of the Year awards. All IBBA and IJBBA members will abide by the show rules as adopted. In addition, any show, fair, event or display in which Brangus cattle participate should follow these rules as adopted by IBBA. All Brangus entries are subject to the provision of a rule of the IBBA entitled Inspection of Exhibits Tattoos/brands and registration papers may be checked during check in. Original registration papers must be presented at check in. (No copies will be accepted) Entries must be made in the name of the Owner. Animals showing signs of warts or other disease will be disqualified and will be required to leave the Fairgrounds. INSPECTION OF EXHIBITS The IBBA, and its representatives, have the authority to require such tests as they deem necessary to verify the accuracy of the classification and pedigree of exhibited Brangus animals. Said authority shall extend to, and cover the enforcement of, all show rules as adopted by IBBA. Each exhibitor shall submit his or her registered Brangus cattle to such tests and examinations as requested and/or required by the IBBA, its authorized representatives, or the authorized representatives of the relevant show. For, and in consideration of, the opportunity to participate in any Brangus function, each exhibitor hereby releases the IBBA, its officers, directors and representatives from negligence, any and all claims, suits, and

90 judgments past, present, or future, arising from or connected with the administration or use of such test or examination and the resulting decisions there from. Dental Inspection: All entries may be classified for judging on an age basis and should be entered in class according to age. Teeth may be inspected by a veterinarian designated by the IBBA in order to determine whether dental development is within allowable limits for the class so entered. If the veterinarian determines that, in his or her opinion, dental development exceeds maximum allowable limits, the animal shall be moved to an older class as determined by the veterinarian and shall remain in that class until determined otherwise by subsequent mouthing or favorable appeal to the IBBA Executive Committee. If it is not possible to move an animal, the animal may not be exhibited in such show. Any exhibitor desiring to dispute or challenge the results of any such test, exam, or show rule enforcement, as applied to his or her animal, shall do so in accordance with procedures established by the Rules of the IBBA. Appeal: An appeal from the decision of the veterinarian or IBBA-designated association representatives under Sections 1 and 4 of the Inspection of Exhibits may be made to the Executive Committee of the IBBA if the following requirements are satisfied: (1) The appeal is in writing and is signed by the appealing party, and (2) the appealing party files the written appeal with the IBBA Executive Committee as soon as possible after the veterinarian s or designated association representative s decision was made. If an appeal satisfying the foregoing requirements is filed with the IBBA Executive Committee, the Executive Committee shall hold a hearing at which the appealing party, and the veterinarian or designated association representative, whose decision is being appealed shall present statements and other evidence that are relevant to the matter following which the Executive Committee shall render a decision which shall be final and conclusive. IBBA Blood Typing for Parentage Verification: Each Brangus animal for which an entry application or registration is received may be subjected to a blood typing test in order to verify both accuracy of parentage and blood type, according to Rules 1 and 2 of the International Brangus Breeders Association (IBBA) Inspection of Exhibits. At selected shows and fairs, blood samples will be taken from all division champions and reserve division champions for the purpose of verifying parentage and blood type. Staff of the IBBA will supervise the collection of blood samples, which can be taken at shows, fairs, and events where IBBA contributes premium money or where IBBA staff personnel participate. Cost of the blood typing procedure will be paid for by the IBBA. If a recorded parent is excluded (as a parent) as a result of blood typing, the owner of the animal may request, at his or her own expense, further determination of the actual parent. Failure to determine the sire and dam will result in the animal being ineligible for future shows and exhibitions.

177 ASF POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR DRUG AND IDENTIFICATION (DNA) TESTING DRUG TESTING POLICY & PENALTY FOR VIOLATIONS Any exhibitor and all other parties found in violation of the Arkansas Livestock Show Association Drug Policy or the IAFE Show Ring Code of Ethics are subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. The purpose of drug testing at the Arkansas State Fair is to ensure that no animal has an unfair advantage because of drug use. Urine samples will be collected, transported to and analyzed at the state laboratory facilities by and under supervision of authorized personnel of Arkansas Livestock and Poultry Commission. Some of the ways that drugs can be used to create an unfair advantage are: 1. Masking the signs of pain (for example, drugs that treat lameness). 2. Altering the behavior of an animal (for example, sedatives). 3. Enhancing weight gain or muscle mass (for example, anabolic steroids). The ASF does not compile a complete and specific list of acceptable drugs, as this list would be very lengthy and constantly changing. Further, we believe this is more appropriately determined by ALPC, and subject to the following basic requirements, as stated in Paragraphs 4 and 5 of the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics, the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal; and those that will not affect the animal s performance or alter its natural contour, conformation or appearance. Any exhibitor and all other parties found in violation of the Arkansas Livestock Show Association Drug Policy or the IAFE Show Ring Code of Ethics are subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. IDENTIFICATION (DNA) POLICY AND PENALTY As a condition for participation in Livestock Shows at the Arkansas State Fair, every exhibitor in the market shows agrees to submit DNA validation/registration samples of any and all animals entered by exhibitor for purposes of identification. Market Shows require that the animal exhibited at the Show be the same as the animal enrolled during the nomination procedure. The Show specifically reserves the right to obtain and maintain hair and/or blood DNA samples and have analysis made on any animal entered for the competition. The conclusion reached by the testing company/laboratories shall be final, without recourse against the Show or its service providers. If the animal s identity (taken at the show) is found to differ from its validation/registration sample, then the exhibitor will forfeit any prize money and/or sale proceeds and may forfeit all rights and privileges of future participation, and will be subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. All incidents of misconduct will be documented by Arkansas State Fair Officials and will be reported to the National Livestock Show & Rodeo Manager s database of IAFE Show Ring Code of Show Ring Ethics offenders. Being reported in this database could impair exhibitor s ability to participate in livestock shows throughout the nation. --The results of drug testing administered by the Arkansas State Fair will be conducted by the Arkansas Livestock and Poultry Commission.

IDENTIFICATION (DNA) POLICY AND PENALTY As a condition for participation in Livestock Shows at the Arkansas State Fair, every exhibitor in the market shows agrees to submit DNA validation/registration samples of any and all animals entered by exhibitor for purposes of identification. Market Shows require that the animal exhibited at the Show be the same as the animal enrolled during the nomination procedure. The Show specifically reserves the right to obtain and maintain hair and/or blood DNA samples and have analysis made on any animal entered for the competition. The conclusion reached by the testing company/laboratories shall be final, without recourse against the Show or its service providers. If the animal s identity (taken at the show) is found to differ from its validation/registration sample, then the exhibitor will forfeit any prize money and/or sale proceeds and may forfeit all rights and privileges of future participation, and will be subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. All incidents of misconduct will be documented by Arkansas State Fair Officials and will be reported to the National Livestock Show & Rodeo Manager s database of IAFE Show Ring Code of Show Ring Ethics offenders.

188 ASF POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR DRUG AND IDENTIFICATION (DNA) TESTING DRUG TESTING POLICY & PENALTY FOR VIOLATIONS Any exhibitor and all other parties found in violation of the Arkansas Livestock Show Association Drug Policy or the IAFE Show Ring Code of Ethics are subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. The purpose of drug testing at the Arkansas State Fair is to ensure that no animal has an unfair advantage because of drug use. Urine samples will be collected, transported to and analyzed at the state laboratory facilities by and under supervision of authorized personnel of Arkansas Livestock and Poultry Commission. Some of the ways that drugs can be used to create an unfair advantage are: 1. Masking the signs of pain (for example, drugs that treat lameness). 2. Altering the behavior of an animal (for example, sedatives). 3. Enhancing weight gain or muscle mass (for example, anabolic steroids). The ASF does not compile a complete and specific list of acceptable drugs, as this list would be very lengthy and constantly changing. Further, we believe this is more appropriately determined by ALPC, and subject to the following basic requirements, as stated in Paragraphs 4 and 5 of the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics, the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal; and those that will not affect the animal s performance or alter its natural contour, conformation or appearance. Any exhibitor and all other parties found in violation of the Arkansas Livestock Show Association Drug Policy or the IAFE Show Ring Code of Ethics are subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. IDENTIFICATION (DNA) POLICY AND PENALTY As a condition for participation in Livestock Shows at the Arkansas State Fair, every exhibitor in the market shows agrees to submit DNA validation/registration samples of any and all animals entered by exhibitor for purposes of identification. Market Shows require that the animal exhibited at the Show be the same as the animal enrolled during the nomination procedure. The Show specifically reserves the right to obtain and maintain hair and/or blood DNA samples and have analysis made on any animal entered for the competition. The conclusion reached by the testing company/laboratories shall be final, without recourse against the Show or its service providers. If the animal s identity (taken at the show) is found to differ from its validation/registration sample, then the exhibitor will forfeit any prize money and/or sale proceeds and may forfeit all rights and privileges of future participation, and will be subject to penalties as stated in the General Rules and Regulations for the Arkansas State Fair. Incidents of misconduct will be documented by Arkansas State Fair Officials and may be reported to the National Livestock Show & Rodeo Manager s database of IAFE Show Ring Code of Show Ring Ethics offenders. Being reported in this database could impair exhibitor s ability to participate in livestock shows throughout the nation. --The results of drug testing administered by the Arkansas State Fair will be conducted by the Arkansas Livestock and Poultry Commission. All test results will be final.
