Mower 4-H youth tested their knowledge in agriculture-related topics challenge on April 12 in Sauk Rapids
Twenty-three youth on six teams from Mower County participated in the 4-H State Project Bowl contest. At this contest, 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.
“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.
Here are the results from the State Contest:
General Livestock Junior – seventh place
Alex E, Amber L, Eisley R, Noah K, Trista G
