Entry fees must accompany the entry form and all late entries will be charged double the regular fee. NSR reserves the right to close entries any time after the printed deadline. All entry fees are non-refundable. • All breeding animals entered at the NBS® must have been owned by Aug. 15, 2018, by the exhibitor. • Crossbred boars: A documented stress test must be presented at check-in. Stress status of your entry will be placed in the show and sale catalog (this is a show and sale requirement). • All entries must be ear notched using the offi cial NSR system. All entries must be recorded by Aug. 15, 2018, or they will be charged a rush fee. • No purebred animals will be allowed to show or sell without a registration certifi cate. Purebred entries will be divided into classes, as equal as possible, by farrowing date. Crossbred classes will be broken by weights.• All hogs must arrive on the grounds between 8 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8, and noon on Sunday, Sept. 9. All animals must meet NBS® health requirements to remain on the fairgrounds. This includes animals in transit.• If all hogs meet show requirements, NBS® entries may be unloaded and non-entries may stay in your vehicle at the south end of the fairgrounds. There is some shade, but no utilities.• If non-show animals meet Minnesota import requirements, but not NBS® requirements, show animals may be unloaded and remaining animals must be immediately removed from the fairgrounds. A parking lot is available south of the fairgrounds across the street. The welfare and care of these animals is the owner’s responsibility. • If any animals arriving on trailers do not meet Minnesota import requirements, all animals will be refused entry, including NBS® animals.• No clipping is allowed in the barns. EXHIBITORS & ELIGIBILITY• All senior exhibitors must be active members of the NSR or must pay the $75 non-member exhibitor fee. An active senior member is age 22 and OVER, paid annual dues and recorded at least one litter in the 2018 fi scal year.• Participants age 21 and UNDER are required to pay a $15 junior participation fee.• Entries are limited to four purebred boars and four purebred open gilts per breed (Duroc, Hampshire, Landrace and Yorkshire), and two crossbred boars per exhibitor. • Breeding animals must be farrowed on Jan. 15, 2018, or after, and must have at least six functional teats on each side. • Market animals must be farrowed on Feb. 1, 2018, or after.• All entries must meet their respective breed requirements. Entries that do not meet these requirements will not be allowed to show or sell within their respective breed shows or sales at the conference.BREEDING ANIMAL SALE• A minimum of 60 percent of the number of each sex (boars and gilts) shown will be selected for the sale. These animals will be selected with no set number selling from any single class. Animals not selected for the sale can be consigned to the sale for an additional fee of $20 per head. If the animal sells, the fee will be applied toward the sale commission. If the animal does not sell, the fee is forfeited.• All animals selected and cataloged for the sale must go through the auction. Sale commission will be 15 percent for all animals. If an animal that is selected and cataloged for the sale does not go through the sale ring, the exhibitor will be banned from exhibiting at NSR events for one year and will be charged 15 percent of the average selling price of their respective breed sale. This amount must be paid before reinstatement will be allowed. The exception to this rule will be if the animal has become injured or ill, and the animal is inspected by a NSR staff member prior to the sale.• The NSR acts only as the agent between the buyer and seller. If proper payment is made by the buyer in a timely manner, the NSR will make settlement with the seller in approximately 30 days after the sale.• If an exhibitor has an account that is past due, funds from the sale of their animals will be applied to their NSR account.DNA STRESS STATEMENT• No known stress-positive or stress-carrier Duroc, Hampshire, Landrace or Yorkshire animals will be allowed to be exhibited or sold at any NSR-sponsored event.• Such warranty, however, is solely that of the seller and not that of the ALA, AYC, HSR or UDSR.• The ALA, AYC, HSR and UDSR assume no responsibility or liability in connection with such warranty by the seller. • If any purebred animal sold at this conference is found to be a carrier of the stress gene, the purchaser has the right to receive full refund of the purchase price from the seller.• DNA testing for the stress gene must be done within 60 days of the sale date and all costs associated with the testing for the stress gene must be paid by the purchaser. The seller has the right to review the test results and the right to re-test the animal at a laboratory of his/her choice.• Cost associated with re-test by the seller is at the seller’s expense.
