So I’m holding a zoom quiz tomorrow for my non Agri friends. Could anyone help with good not too hard Agri questions for my farming round. Cheers

Did the same couple of weeks ago, my 7 questions were as below.
1) 3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days. Gestation of what ?
2) Banner Lane, Coventry, synonymous with which icon of British Agriculture. ?
3) Wakefield, Morley and Rothwell form the boundary of what ?
4) I am a theave in the north, a gimmer in the midlands, a tegg in the south. What am I ?
5) Graceless, Aimless, Feckless and Pointless. Who ?
6) Jimmy White and a sheep. The connection ?
7) Manx Loaghtan, Portland, Golden Guernsey, Wensleydale. Odd one out ?

Though tbf the other participants were meant to have a modicum of agric knowledge. Not that you would have known it from the scores...

How many stomachs does a cow have and name them.

Could go down the how many months are there in a year? 13 (y) 364 / 7 = 52, 52 / 7 = 13.

when is a door not a door? When it’s ajar.

what’s does DEFRA stand for? Most people think the F is farming.

@RmfJ is an incredible quiz brain so hopefully he’ll say some better ones

An interesting one for non farmers is to ask how long it takes for a lamb to get to weight to be slaughtered, a bullock, a pig and a chicken.

I can guarantee they will be totally shocked by the Chicken and will wonder why they eat them at all!!

Most of my quiz already a bit of dark humour.[emoji23]

I’ve got how many acres in a hectare! Was going to put how many acres you can fit in football pitch. Yours sounds better

how many non farming would know 2.471 though?
I’m guessing a football pitch is marginally bigger than an acre?
Edit, just googled and an acre is 76% of a football pitch, or roughly an acre and a half, with the surrounding bits ( couple of metres run off I’m guessing) it’s around 2 acre. I’m shocked by that
