On Wednesday, September 14th the Vinton-Shellsburg FFA Chapter attended the FS Agronomy 411 event at the FS building in Vinton. Several other area FFA Chapters attended the event as well. Students rotated through eight educational stations covering assessing soil, water quality, commercial fertilizer products, Iowa Corn Biofuels, aerial applications, combines, and soybean cyst nematodes. Students also asked agriculture professionals about their career paths and opportunities for women in agronomy during a career panel over the lunch hour. Overall the chapter had a great time attending Agronomy 411 and learned a lot of new information about the different aspects and career options available through agriculture.
