| Impact Report | Kids, Kows and More An excellent learning opportunity for the 4th grade students from Curry, Roosevelt Counties and several nearby Texas counties is Kids, Kows and More. This program takes place each spring with the help of other organizations like Southwest Dairy Farmers, Curry Co, Farm Bureau and other area agriculture organizations and businesses and is coordinated by the Curry and Roosevelt County Cooperative Extension Offices. The hands on opportunity with learning stations that include the basic agriculture crops and resources produced in these two counties, teaches students and adults about the production and consumer uses of these products. Home Economist teaches the learning station on peanut production, consumer uses of these peanuts as well as the nutritional value of the products. This opportunity will help students have a better appreciation of how agriculture impacts their lives. |
