Mail Code 4415
Carbondale, IL 62901
4. Divisions: Varsity, Junior Varsity, and as many Practice members as you want
5. Rings: Insect ID, Crop ID, Weed ID, Machinery ID, Exam, Corn Judging ring, and
A soybean Judging ring. Our event will be similar to Illinois FFA Agronomy CDE,
Except we will use insect practicum rather than soils.
6. Format: This is a virtual event, and therefore each advisor will be responsible for
supervising their students. Each ring will have a file within a folder that will be emailed
to you. The Scantron used in our event will be the same one used in the Illinois FFA
Agronomy CDE. We would suggest that you have students print out the scantron
and put their answers on it in the event the electronic version is somehow lost or
erased. The ID rings will be power points. The pictures of weed and crops will be of
seeds, mature, or seedling plants The exam will be a pdf. If photos of plants are
used a mature plant and seedling picture will be presented on the same slide. If your
Section decide to use our event for your Section Agronomy CDE, we can create reports
within judgingcard.com.
We have attached the scantron and our rules to this email. Any other questions please contact Howard Heavner at hheavner7@siu.edu or cell number at bottom on email.
Thank you,
Howard
