FFA Places in County Competition
The
Greenville FFA Agricultural and Industrial Diagnostics judging
team of Brady Garber and Patrick Schmitmeyer placed 5th at Darke County
contest. The
contest was held at Koenig
Equipment and employees of Koenig’s ran the contest for teams from
Darke County
FFA Chapters.
The
Tractor Troubleshooting contest involves a team of two
members. The team
had 4 tractors that
were bugged with problems and the team had to identify the bug and then
fix the
problem. Examples
of problems that can
be found in the tractors are bad fuses, broken electrical wiring, blown
lights,
safety switches disconnected, obstructed air flow, and others. It challenges the team
members to work in a
systematic method to troubleshoot the problem, utilize computers to
help in
identifying the problem and to correct it. The team members also have a
written
test to take concerning similar topics.
Members have 20 minutes to complete each
of the stations of the contest.
Brady
and Patrick advanced on to the District 5 Agricultural and
Industrial Diagnostics judging contest on February 23rd at the Koenig
Dealership in Anna, Ohio. They
placed
5th out of 18 teams in the District contest.
Special thanks go to Koenig Equipment
for setting up the contests and
practices for the local chapters.
