The National FFA Poultry Evaluation CDE is a competitive event that tests the participant’s ability to
select top quality poultry and poultry products needed for successful production and marketing.
Event participants must complete a written exam on poultry management, evaluate classes of live
birds for eggs and meat production, evaluate quality of eggs, and evaluate and identify parts and
products. Each team competed at local and state levels for the privilege of representing their state at
the National FFA Convention & Expo
