I then proceeded to figure up the number of kernels that would be... somewhere in the neighborhood of 21 quadrillion (and yes that's actually a kind of number!) or enough for every one of the 7 billion people on earth to have 300,000 kernels.

Pigs have always fascinated me. They're smarter than most people assume (you can almost train them like dogs), are healthier to eat then many other meats (that's another post though) and by golly, can you get some wacky products from them! #agvocate factorhogwash.blo...

4-H and FFA provides our youth with an opportunity to build a relationship with the agriculture industry. The pride our youth show when showing their projects at fairs is a prime example of that love.
