One of the more recent areas of competition in the FFA organization is the Agriscience Fair. At the national level- the Fair is a three step competition. First- a group of up to ten participants were named back in the summer for each Division- and those who became eligible to compete at the national level included 26 entries from Oklahoma- making Oklahoma the state with the most finalists.
A full list of those finalists are listed below.
The next step was the naming of the Top Three Winners for each Division in the six categories- Oklahoma advanced a total of nine into that round that was named a few weeks ahead of the National Convention.
Finally- National Winners were named in each Division within each of the six categories- Oklahoma claimed three national champions at this final and highest level of recognition. Oklahoma tied for second in number of National Champs in the Agriscience Fair- Texas had the most of any state in the final results.
The three Oklahoma FFA Students who won at the 2021 National FFA Agriscience Fair included:
Callen Veit of Morrison- winning in Division One of the Food Products and Processing Category (Pictued above- Courtesy of the Morrison FFA's Facebook post)
Kyriana Beard of Stillwater FFA in the Division 1 of the Animal and Environmental Services Category
Madison Muller of Lawton FFA in the Division 3 of the Social Services Category
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.
