PASTURE
These displays consist of ten
representative plants mounted on light boards 3 feet square, strong enough to
stand upright. The plants should be shown full length, with the stems cut to prevent
any part of the plant from extending beyond the edge of the board. Grasses and other
fine-stemmed plants may be shown as bundles not to exceed one inch in diameter,
and single plants that are heavy-stemmed or bushy may be used. Plants should be
headed and in bloom or seed stage but not ripe enough to shatter. Label with
common name (see approved lists for FFA identification contests) in letters
one-half inch high. The exhibitor’s name and address must be placed on the back
of the board in addition to the entry tag. Displays will be judged on choice of
species; quality of samples (green color, leafiness, dryness and stage of
maturity); neatness and arrangement of samples and general appearance of
display; and correctness and readability of labels. Entries, which are found to
be identical as a result of group preparation, will be disqualified.
