About the Association
Applicants are eligible if they have fed ShowMaker, Show-Rite, Lindner, or Rival Show Feeds as the primary portion of the animals diet. Awards are eligible for market and breeding animals. Showmanship, division and breed champion awards do not qualify. Applicants that receive an award for an animal agree not to use the animal in any other advertisement for a competing feed company, doing so will forfeit the award.
Applicants that utilized supplements from Stock Show Secrets, Sure Champ and Rule Supplements are not eligible for awards on The Association, however, we would gladly advertise the applicants wins. Applicants can visit the below sites to explore if each company offers an award program.
Group Awards
For group awards, all animals in the club or chapter group must be fed ShowMaker, Show-Rite, Lindner or Rival Show Feeds. Group awards are only for 4-H club, Grange or FFA chapter groups. Group awards are available for any species that qualify for a group award at their fair. Checks for group awards will be made out to the group.
