On Jan. 24, the McClain FFA Chapter recently took a team to the state contest for biotechnology, where they placed fifth.
At the contest, the participants had to do two skill lab events, identify different biotechnology equipment and develop a presentation about an issue in biotechnology. They also had to take an online test to qualify.
