Crop Judging

On Saturday, Dash and Angelina will enter the realm of 4-H Crop Judging by competing in their first meet. To prepare, they've been studying weed mounts, weed seeds, crop seeds, and grading grain samples since the beginning of January.


Dad has been leading this endeavor as I've never crop judged; my closest experience would have been an Agronomy course in college. From my own experience in the class, I can tell you that judging will involve a lot of memorization and attention to detail.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the kids do at the contest. A little competition is good and at best, it will create a little motivation for self improvement.
