The Community R-VI FFA Chapter placed second in the meats evaluation career development event at the 95th Missouri FFA Convention. There were 48 teams in the competition.

The team members are Kate Robnett, Callie Jennings, Drake Welch, and Baylie Windmann. Robnett placed 2nd, Jennings placed 5th, Welch placed 14th, and Windmann placed 35th out of 187 participants. The Audrain County FFA advisors are Ethan Romi and Casinda Smith.

Participants in the event are required to complete comprehensive exams in meat selection, storage, cooking, nutrition and safety. They also are asked to perform activities involving mathematical formulas for making cost-efficient meat products. Competitors identify cuts of meat by species, retail trade name and prime cut identification.
