IAFE (INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FAIRS AND EXPOSITIONS)
CODE OF SHOW RING ETHICS Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship.
Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote
the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in
structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition
to the “IAFE Code of Show Ring Ethics,” fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose
on the local, county, state, provincial and national levels. All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an
affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so
certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors,
fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and
auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in accordance with the rules adopted by the respective
fairs and livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and
should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada. The following is a list of
guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events:
1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of
ownership, and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto
is prohibited.
2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health
certificates from licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show officials.
3. Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows.
4. Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues.
The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of, consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer
and/or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or
other substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates with
the animal entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable
federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs
administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules affect the animal’s
performance or appearance at the event. If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other
sample taken from livestock indicates the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie
evidence such substance has been administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that
the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by the laboratory, to which it is sent, is the one taken
from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedures of said collection and preservation,
transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the
laboratory pertains to the sample taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the
animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely
responsible person to prove otherwise. At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises,
all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the
animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian.
5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance
(irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal’s performance or alter its natural
contour, confirmation, or appearance, except external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals
which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for
the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited.
6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using
electrical contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited.
7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed
representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with
courtesy, cooperation and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them.
8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person shall conspire with another person or persons
to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons
either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such
individual to disciplinary action.
9. The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal’s condition by an owner,
exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual
knowledge of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics.
10. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely
responsible person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of
Show Ring Ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the
fair or livestock show. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary
action taken by the fair or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any
publication of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expos and any special
notices to members.
11. The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor,
fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE Code of Show Ring Ethics and
understands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a
consent that any action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of federal, state, or provincial
statutes, regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over
such infractions.
