What is the focus of Agri-Science FFA competitions?

The focus of Agri-Science FFA competitions is primarily on scientific research and inquiry in agriculture. These competitions are designed to engage students in the exploration of agricultural concepts through scientific methods. Participants are encouraged to conduct their own research projects, which may involve formulating hypotheses, performing experiments, and drawing conclusions based on their findings. This hands-on approach fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills while allowing students to explore and address real-world agricultural issues.

In contrast, other options like financial management, vegetable and fruit production, and livestock breeding, although important aspects of agriculture, do not encompass the broader scientific inquiry component that is central to Agri-Science competitions. The emphasis on research facilitates a deeper understanding of agricultural sciences and encourages innovation and advancements in the field.
