4-H aquaculture challenge
What is aquaculture? Why is it becoming a growing industry?
Globally, fish consumption has nearly doubled in the last 40 years. At the same time wild fish capture has leveled off. This is due to decreasing wild stocks and high scrutiny of fishing practices.…

Agriculture in print: soy ink
How do we replace non-renewable resources with renewable resources in high-use products like inks?
Create ink recipes and test the formulas. Ink is basically pigment mixed in a liquid that will not blur when put on paper. Inks made with soybean oil are made from a renewable resource, are much more…

Exploring the fuel efficiency and environmental impact of biofuels
Biofuels are the next generation of renewable fuel sources that are less harmful than conventional non-renewable fuel sources. With the growing knowledge of harmful environmental impacts of the fossil fuel industry, biofuels serve as an attractive…

Freeze Seed
For this experiment, we conducted a trial to find out what would happen if we grew seeds that were frozen versus seeds that were left at room temperature. Our hypothesis was that the frozen seeds would grow at a slower pace than the normal seeds. To…

Impact of Different Chemicals on Plant Types
How do different amounts of chemicals in fertilizer affect plant growth? Well, it was predicted that if the amount of chemicals increase above the optimal, then the height will decrease because if too many chemicals are added to the soil, they can…
student research project
Improper Soybean Seed Handling Effects on Germination
In this project, multiple bags of soybeans were dropped from different heights and then germinated to test if improper handling has an effect on germination. First, the seeds were bagged, counted, and then dropped from their various heights of 150…

It's a drought: time for soybeans
In this project, five different types of soybeans were tested in three sequentially staged droughts with one control group. My hypothesis was that soybean P24T05R would do best in drought, and soybean R2C2450 would do the worst. The materials used…

Plant oils matter: agricultural soap
What are the ingredients of products you use everyday like soap? Does it matter where they come from?
Soap made from soybeans? Sunflowers? Olives? Plant oils have different “fatty acids” that determine the characteristics of your soap—is it creamy? bubbly? hard? soft? It is the oil in plants that…
student research project
Soybean peroxidase
This study tested which type of soybean has the most peroxidase. The function of peroxidase found in soybeans is to initiate the growth process when the plant is growing or injured. The hypothesis was that there will be no difference in the levels…

Soy McCoy coloring book
What is a soybean? What value does it have?
For younger students, a coloring book that introduces soybeans: the history and the uses in animal agriculture, bioproducts and the local grocery store. This is perfect for ag days, camps or after…
student research project
The Effect of Seed Storage Conditions on the Drought-Tolerance of Soybean Plants
The effect of seed storage conditions on the drought-tolerance of its soybean plants was studied. The researcher hypothesized that soybean seeds stored in the freezer (-10°F to 5°F), with a moderate relative humidity (50% to 60%) will have the best…
student research project
The effect of soil on plant growth
Have you ever been curious if the type of soil used affects how plants grow? Five soybean seeds were planted 2.5 cm deep, in separate pots of each type of soil. After seeds were planted, all 10 plants were placed by a long window so that each…
student research project
The Miracle Formula
The purpose of this investigation is to find out how the pH and amount of each ingredient in a chemical fertilizer would affect the height of soybean, watermelon, and pumpkin plants. It is expected that fertilizers containing more nitrogen will…
