The Quiz Bowl competition welcomes students to showcase and challenge their knowledge acquired from agricultural education in a heightened competitive environment.

In 2016, Ray Pieniazek, Texas FFA Board of Directors member, proposed to hold an annual quiz bowl contest after noting a loss of curriculum contests opportunities. The first contest was held at the 2017 Texas FFA State Convention in Fort Worth.



Students are to understand the objectives presented in the Principles of Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources curriculum to progress within the competition. 

“It stimulates their appetite to learn more about the whole agricultural industry,” Pieniazek said.

As a result of participation in this contest, members develop vital personal and interpersonal skills, including teamwork, confidence, decision-making, reasoning, and self-discipline.



The competition has grown to reach record numbers compared to past conventions. With 12 junior and 35 senior teams, the Quiz Bowl contest is gaining recognition as a state event.
 
At the 7th Annual Quiz Bowl, La Vernia FFA won the Senior Ag Quiz Bowl and Perrin FFA won the Junior AFNR Quiz Bowl.
