Each year over two thousand Hamilton County second graders and their teachers** travel to the 4-H Fairgrounds to learn about how agriculture affects their daily lives. Kids learn just exactly how many different ways they consume corn, soybeans, wheat, natural resources, and products.  Animal production and animal by-products will be explained with the use of beef cattle, dairy cattle, goats, horses, llamas, poultry, rabbits, sheep and swine. 
The Hamilton County Ag Day Program is supported by the cooperative efforts of Purdue Extension Hamilton County; Hamilton County Farm Bureau Co-op; Hamilton County Farm Bureau, Inc.; Hamilton County Soil & Water Conservation District; Reynolds Farm Equipment; Beck’s Hybrids; Ag Reliant Genetics; Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc.; the Rabbit Producers, Sheep Producers, Pork Producers, Beef Cattlemen and Dairy Herd Improvement Association members of Hamilton County; and the Hamilton County 4-H Llama, Poultry, and Goat members and volunteers.
**Ag Day visits are scheduled for 2nd graders through local school corporations.  Ask your child's teacher if their elementary participates!
