Wisconsin FFA Practice Test

An FFA member interested in horticulture would likely choose a project that involves landscaping or growing flowers. Horticulture encompasses a wide range of activities related to the cultivation of plants, including flowers, shrubs, trees, and other ornamental plants. By engaging in such a project, members can learn essential skills related to plant care, design, and the principles of plant growth.

Landscaping can cover various aspects such as design planning, selecting appropriate plants, and understanding environmental conditions that affect plant health. Similarly, growing flowers involves knowledge of different species, soil types, watering needs, and pest management. Both types of projects align closely with the goals of FFA to foster agricultural education and practical skills in the field of horticulture.

In contrast, the other options focus on different areas of agriculture, such as animal husbandry, which deals primarily with livestock; crop rotation, which is a farming practice aimed at improving soil health and crop yields; and farm machinery maintenance, which focuses on the upkeep and repair of equipment used in farming. While all these areas are important in agriculture, they do not specifically pertain to horticulture.
