Florida FFA is pleased to announce the results of the Meats Evaluation Career Development Event (CDE). The event was held April 21, 2012 at the University of Florida Meats Lab in Gainesville. 15 high school and 13 middle school teams from throughout Florida gathered to compete for the top spot. The purpose of the Meats Evaluation CDE is to stimulate learning activities related to the processing of beef, pork and lamb carcasses, including retail cut identification and factors affecting meat quality. Florida FFA is very appreciative of the support of our event coordinators Dr. Chad Carr and Mr. Larry Eubanks of the University of Florida Department of Animal Sciences.
As a matter of procedure, event results are considered unofficial for (2) business days following publishing. It is the responsibility of the FFA Advisor to request and review individual team results. Any appeal must be made to the FFA Executive Secretary in writing for necessary adjustments to be made. At the close of business on the second business day following publishing, results will be official.
