Congratulations to Julian Chavez for winning Lamb Premier Exhibitor. Premier exhibitor is a competitive scholarship contest.

You name the breed of beef cattle, and there is a good chance Julian Chavez has shown it at some point in the last 14 years.

The Lincoln County, Mississippi 4-H’er has exhibited Belted Galloway, Hereford, Charolais and Simmental cattle at countless livestock shows across the state. At the 2026 Dixie National Junior Round-Up livestock show, Chavez showed five Grey Brahman heifers and was one of just six competitors to be named a premier exhibitor after showing his breeding hair sheep.

The 2026 Dixie National Sale of Junior Champions, the grand finale of the round-up, was held Feb. 12. During the event, the high school senior received a $2,000 scholarship, which he will use to help pay for tuition when he starts college. He plans to major in animal and dairy sciences with a minor in agribusiness. One of the career options Chavez is considering is animal chiropractic care.

“I’d get to work with animals, which is probably one of my favorite things to do,” Chavez said. “Animals have always been a part of my life, so it’s always going to be something that I want to be a part of.”
