4-H youth tested their knowledge in agriculture-related topics challenge on March 9 in Hastings
On March 9, 33 youth on eight teams from Mower County participated in one of four 4-H Regional Project Bowl contests. At these contests, teams of three to six youth test their knowledge on a variety of animal science and agriculture topics including dairy, dog, general livestock, horse, llama, poultry and rabbit.
Teams are quizzed in one-on-one and open rounds. The first participant with the correct answer earns points for their team. A number of teams from each Regional Project Bowl contest will continue on to the State Project Bowl competition on April 6, in Sauk Rapids.
“Through the 4-H Project Bowl program, youth have the opportunity to partner together with other youth and learn about different animal science areas. Participants also work on improving their communication skills and building meaningful relationships with their peers, which can contribute to their future success,” said Sharon Davis, 4-H Animal Science Director.
