SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (RFD NEWS) — Stock show season is not just about livestock—teamwork and competition extend into the classroom as well. For one group of students, that competition comes through robotics. At the San Antonio Stock Show, FFA students are putting their skills to the test in the robotics arena, showing how technology and collaboration are shaping the next generation of agricultural innovators.
Kirbe Schnoor visited San Antonio to see young innovators racing the clock and building skills for the future. She also gives us a glimpse into how students are combining creativity, engineering, and collaboration to compete in a high-tech arena.
Among the participants is the Stephenville Texas FFA Chapter, showcasing how agricultural technology is shaping the next generation of problem-solvers.
For the Tilden Texas FFA Chapter, success wasn’t just about a perfect first round—it was about regrouping, refocusing, and finishing strong in the robotics arena.
The competitions highlight how students are developing critical skills for the future by blending teamwork, innovation, and perseverance.
