This year Muscatine FFA had a number of students who showed livestock at the Iowa State Fair. The FFA portion of the Iowa State Fair actually started two days before the fair with check-in and arrival of swine, sheep, and horses. Those species show the first few days of the fair and then leave as the 4-H swine and sheep move into the barns. After those species are done the goats both meat and dairy move into the barns and show.
