Field Day at UC Davis is turning 50 and this year it will bring an estimated 1,650 FFA and 4-H students to campus to participate in 20 contests showing off their agricultural knowledge and leadership skills.
The annual event is a massive undertaking that brings together 600 student volunteers, coordinators, judges, advisors, faculty and others over one weekend to evaluate knowledge in a variety of topics from agricultural welding and farm management to livestock judging and veterinary sciences.
