Crossbred steers shown by 4-H members from Northwest Missouri claimed top honors Tuesday afternoon at the Missouri State Fair. Kyle Hill has this report from Sedalia.
The final major market contest takes place Wednesday afternoon starting at 5:30, when the rabbit show gets underway. The contest was unable to take place last year after the discovery of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus in Colorado.
