- LSU AgCenter 2023 rabbit show winners announced
(03/22/23) ALEXANDRIA, La. — The winners of the 2023 LSU AgCenter 4-H and FFA State Rabbit Show have been announced.
Rodney Johnson, AgCenter agent in Rapides Parish, said the show, which was held at the State Evacuation Shelter in Alexandria on March 4, welcomed 485 exhibition rabbits and eight meat pens.
Hundreds of hard-working exhibitors showed off all the skills acquired through their rabbit project work.
The Gerry Lane Premier exhibitor contest highlights the exhibitor’s knowledge level in the rabbit project, and had more than 80 entries, Johnson said.
The showmanship contest sponsored by Nutrien, which featured the exhibitor’s knowledge level and handling, had more than 95 entries.
“With over 200 4-H and FFA exhibitors participating, it was a fun-filled, educational experience for all,” Johnson said.
