On the road again

Milk judging, vet tech teams compete in four contests in as many days

Addison Coerver, Staff Writer

Five hundred hours of traveling, four contests and four days kept two Future Farmers of America teams on the road March 22-25.

The practice led to the Area VII contests where the milk quality judging and vet tech teams earned bids to compete at state.  Milk judging involves tasting various milk products to determine quality.  Vet tech is all about the physical health of animals.
