The Ultimate Challenge is the newest addition to the foundation's "My American Farm" free online educational gaming platform. Sponsored by Pioneer Hi-Bred, a DuPont business, My American Farm has been growing in popularity since its launch in January of this year.
To play The Ultimate Challenge game, students select a "farmer" avatar and take on the challenge of building a virtual farm as they play each of the games on My American Farm. However, in true board-game fashion, players will also experience several "curve ball" and "quick challenges" that provide important information about the impact America's 2.2 million farms and ranches have on their daily lives.
"The Ultimate Challenge gives students an opportunity to see and experience the story of agriculture from gate to plate," said Curtis Miller, director of education for the foundation. "Further, it does so while sharing accurate and up-to-date messages about agriculture."
