The South Johnston FFA Chapter finished first in the state recently in the Milk Quality and Products contest out of 66 other FFA chapters.
The participants had to identify various cheeses, milk defects and other dairy products while also taking a general knowledge test based on the North Carolina and National Dairy Industry.
The participants were: Morgan Simpson, graduate; Jackson Durham, graduate; Olivia Myers, junior and Jarrett Allen, sophomore.
In addition, Simpson had the highest individual score in the contest.
These four students have qualified for the national contest where they will represent North Carolina by competing against the rest of the country and U.S. territories.
