The National FFA Organization has announced the 2020 National FFA Agriscience Fair winners for Animal and Environmental Services and Natural Resource Systems. The winners were recognized today during the first session of the 93rd National FFA Convention & Expo, held virtually this year.
The National FFA Agriscience Fair recognizes students who gain real-world, hands-on experiences in agricultural enterprises. Students use scientific principles and emerging technologies to solve complex problems related to agriculture, food and natural resources. The agriscience fair is for middle and high school students. Students compete in one of six categories in the agriscience fair and under one of the six divisions—either individually or in a team.
