FFA AGRICULTURAL MECHANICS PROJECTS To be eligible for a Putnam County Fair Ticket you must have at least 10 points 1. Articles exhibited must have been constructed by FFA members either as part of their agricultural mechanics instruction in vocational agricultural or as part of their supervised occupational experience programs. 2.

All articles must be painted or properly treated in the case of feeders, etc. All articles must be clean and in presentable condition even though they may have been used. 4. Each exhibitor is limited to a total of two entries in each class. 5. The points assigned to projects are based upon the amount and difficulty of the work involved, difficulty and cost of moving, and the cost of materials. The points given below are for average projects of the kind listed. The FFA teacher may adjust the points up or down within a range of 50 percent when a project is unusual in size or difficulty, and it appears necessary in order to keep the points in balance. 6. Projects built to be used as one unit should be entered as one entry and not entered separately (example: trailer ramps should not be entered separately from the trailer if the trailer is being exhibited).
