NDA announces winners in annual poultry photo contest
The Nebraska Department of Agriculture is pleased to announce the winners in NDA’s annual Poultry Photo Contest. The contest was open to Nebraska 4-H and FFA members. The winning photographs are featured in a special 2024 calendar that includes biosecurity information poultry owners can use to protect their flocks from diseases.
“Keeping backyard flocks healthy is important to poultry owners and the poultry industry,” said NDA Director Sherry Vinton. “4-H and FFA members work hard to ensure that the animals in their care stay healthy and strong. The photos we received from this year’s poultry contest show healthy poultry living the good life in Nebraska.”
The students submitting winning photos from this year’s contest are: Kelsey Bunn of North Bend; Reagan Dinger of Roca; Sofie Farr of Farnam; Kaitlyn Flessner of Ord; Clara Krause of Hubbard; Charlie Meister of Springfield; Grant Meister of Springfield; Janae Oberg of Farnam; Jacob Rief of St. Paul; Charlotte Sanio of Lincoln; Kyla Wharton of Lincoln; and Ada White of Grand Island.
“I would like to thank the 4-H and FFA members who entered this year’s Poultry Photo contest,” Vinton said. “Through your photography, you are showing people in a unique and creative way just how diverse the poultry industry is in Nebraska.”
