2024 WILLIAMS COUNTY DRUG USE NOTIFICATION FORM (DUNF) - REQUIRED 

DUNF FORMS - REQUIRED for ALL LIVESTOCK. 

DUNF stands for Electronic Drug Use Notification Form. This electronic form must be completed and submitted electronically prior to arriving at the Fairgrounds on weigh-in day, Friday, September 6th, 2024. All animals, including feeder calves, must submit a DUNF Form prior to their arrival on the fairgrounds. A separate DUNF is required for each market lamb, goat, hog, feeder calf, steer, turkey, duck, goose, and rabbit, as well as lactating dairy goat, lactating dairy cow, and pen of broilers, per the Ohio Department of Agriculture.

POULTRY: If you animal does not have an identification number, simply put your initials, followed by a number in numerical order. For example, I have 2 pens of chickens. I will enter MS1 for the first pen and MS2 for the second pen.

If you make a mistake, or need to update information after you submit the form, please complete an additional form entry for that respective animal.

Reminder these are due BEFORE you arrive on the fairgrounds. You will not be permitted to weigh in if your DUNF is not completed prior to 7 AM on Friday, September 6th. The only exception to this rule is if your animal does not have an official identification number or tag in its ear prior to arriving at the fair. If this is your case, you will bring your animals on the grounds, tag it, complete your DUNF, then weigh-in.
