Sobre la simulación
A 90-minute, 4-round basic Express simulation on running a high-school agricultural enterprise for one year, for Career and Technical Education in agriculture (agricultural education programs with an FFA chapter and a Supervised Agricultural Experience), 4-H and extension youth-entrepreneurship programs and introductory farm management.
Jorgensen Farm Fresh Eggs (the fictional entrepreneurship SAE of a 16-year-old FFA member near Pella, Iowa): you run a laying-hen flock through its first laying year, March 2027 to February 2028.
Round by round you choose the size of the flock and how the records are kept, where the eggs are sold and how they are handled, the light for the short days and what to do about sick hens, and the winter plan and the year-end close.
Each quarter is scored on lay rate, feed cost per dozen, average price, record quality and net return; holding eggs above 45 degrees F, or selling eggs during a drug withdrawal period, caps the score. English with Spanish.
