Agricultural Products Identification Contest

Recently, my siblings and I went to the Heart of Texas fair to participate in Ag Id. Ag Id stands for Agricultural Products Identification Contest which is a contest where youth go to different stations and have  to identify a produce item and answer a question about the item. Station 9 had a picture of grapes and asked which of this product is not a variety grown in Texas? The answer was Edelweiss so you would bubble in D. on your scantron. It sounds easy at first, but you have to study a long list of products and facts about each one. Also there is a lot of competition; we were competing against 45 other teams. The team that I led won 1st place senior team, my sister placed third place high point individual, and I placed high point senior individual and a scholership as well.

  1. Hello,
    thank you for your comment. I don't know what my favorite part of our trip was but Washington DC and Boston were my favorite cities. Our chickens are now doing better, but before our trip we had a bobcat attack our chickens! It killed one overnight, but one got clawed and the other got bit. those 2 both ended dead. One of our chicks also died so now we only have 3 chickens.
