Welcome!
World Dairy Expo 2019 Dairy Cattle Show entries are open.
Online and paper entry forms are due September 8 by 11:59 p.m. (CST). Late entries may be submitted online through September 19, and paper entries will be honored until the day of the show, both for an increased fee.
New to the Dairy Cattle Show, a Summer Junior Two-Year-Old Cow Class has been added to the International Holstein Show, International Junior Holstein Show, International Red & White Show and International Junior Red & White Show. Animals exhibited in this class are born between June 1, 2017 and August 31, 2017 and in milking form at WDE.
Stay up to date on current health requirements for cattle traveling to WDE. All testing and health requirements can be found on the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection website.
In order to remain in compliance with the USDA Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) rule, animals MUST have official AIN or CCIA tag ID submitted with entry, listed on their health papers and a matching AIN or CCIA tag in their ear when they arrive on grounds. Acceptable forms of animal identification are: USDA AIN 840 tag, Canadian CIA RFID 124 tag, Manufacturer Coded RFID 900, 982, or 985 tag. *NOTE: Manufacturer coded 900, 982 or 985 RFID tags were discontinued as official ID by USDA starting in 2015. However, tags applied before March 11, 2015 will be recognized for the life of the animal. Tags must be in place in the animal's ear upon arrival to the Expo grounds. This information will be used for health check-in upon arrival. Breed show check-in will continue to use an original breed association registration paper.
Does your dairy cattle entry need an RFID tag? Datamars, Inc., Temple, TX is sponsoring up to ten (10) 840-series RFID tag sets per exhibitor for U.S. exhibitors who need AIN tags for their entries. A premise ID is required. To obtain your tags or visit Datamars to order tags online or contact April Walker, Datamars directly (phone: 254-598-3452).
