Educational displays and public relations are an important component of herdsmanship. 2. It is the primary responsibility of 4-H exhibitor to do herdsmanship. Non 4-H exhibitors or adults are to assist only prior to 10 a.m. if necessary. Failure of 4-H exhibitor to do herdsmanship can result in forfeit of all awards and premiums, and removal from further participation in the respective 4-H Animal Division for the duration of the Fair. 3.
