  1. Agriscience Opportunities NAAE, St. Louis November 17, 2011 Larry Lyder, Education Specialist II

  2. Agriscience Teacher • NAAE is in charge of this program • Contact Alissa Smith • asmith.naae@uky.edu • 800-509-0204

  3. Agriscience Fair • New Categories • Animal Systems (AS) • Environmental Services/Natural Resource Systems (ENR) • Food Products and Processing (FPP) • Plant Systems (PS) • Power, Structural and Technical Systems (PST) • Social Systems (SS)

  4. Animal Systems Research The study of animal systems, including life processes, health, nutrition, genetics, management and processing, through the study of small animals, aquaculture, livestock, dairy, horses and/or poultry.

  5. Plant Systems Research The study of plant life cycles, classifications, functions, structures, reproduction, media and nutrients, as well as growth and cultural practices, through the study of crops, turf grass, trees and shrubs and/or ornamental plants.

  6. Environmental Service Systems/Natural Resource Systems Research The study of systems, instruments and technology used in waste management, the study of the management of soil, water, wildlife, forests and air as natural resources and their influence on the environment.

  7. Food Products and Processing Systems Research The study of product development, quality assurance, food safety, production, sales and service, regulation and compliance, and food service within the food science industry.

  8. Power, Structural and Technical Systems Research The study of agricultural equipment, power systems, alternative fuel sources and precision technology, as well as woodworking, metal working, welding and project planning for agricultural structures.

  9. Social Sciences Research The study of human behavior and the interaction of individuals in and to society, including agricultural education, agribusiness economic, agricultural communication, agricultural leadership and other social science applications in agriculture, food and natural resources.

  15. Agriscience Research Proficiency • Transition from Agriscience Student Award/Scholarship Program • Teacher input and requests • Expansion of opportunities to recognize more students • Same process and awards as technical proficiency

  16. Proficiency Award Areas • Animal Systems Research • Environmental Services/Natural Resource Systems Research • Food Products and Processing Systems Research • Plant Systems Research • Power, Structural and Technical Systems Research • Social Systems Research • Diversified Systems Research

  17. Proficiency Award Areas Diversified Research Proficiency areas that include cross-area research projects, or for a member who has multiple research projects related to more than one research area.

  18. Agriscience Proficiency • Phase in process • Only 3 areas for 2012 • Animal Systems Research • Plant Systems Research • Integrated Research • Environmental Service systems/Natural Resource Systems Research • Food Products and Processing Systems Research • Power, Structural and Technical Systems Research • Social Sciences Research • Diversified Research (2 or more research areas)

  19. Agriscience Proficiency • Additional areas will be added in future years • All contingent on funding and participation • Released by June 1

  20. Agriscience Proficiency Cont. • Application • Similar to technical application • Few pages different due to type of SAE (research) • Research SAE summary page • Research expense page • Encourage to include biotech competencies • Research information for documentation • MUST have expense page, abstract, procedure and conclusion for each research project

  21. Agriscience Opportunities • Agriscience Fair • Agriscience Proficiencies • Star in Agriscience

  25. Agriscience CDE cont. • Team Activity • All 4 team members work collaboratively • Research scenario • Draw a scenario from the 6 categories • 60 minutes to: • Identify appropriate research question • Develop research proposal • 10 minute presentation • 10 minutes for questions

  26. Agriscience CDE cont. • Individual Practicum • Research Critique • Completed by all 4 team members individually • Presented with research report • 60 minutes to develop critique • Methods • Processes • Conclusions • Recommendations

  27. Agriscience CDE cont. • Knowledge Based Exam • All 4 team members will take individually • 50 question multiple choice

  28. Scenario • The citizens of Anytown, USA have noticed a different taste in their water that lasts only a few days but seems to be occurring rather frequently. Some say the natural gas drilling in the county is the cause. Others believe it is the new golf course that opened last fall. Still others blame the poultry farms for the litter that is spread around the county on a daily basis. As a local research group, you have been asked to determine what is going on with Anytown’s water.
