Nutrient Deficiencies in Livestock (ASC 5.1) PBL Project

In this project, students will explore the correlation between soil and plant nutrient levels with health problems in livestock. The students will analyze a case study about a specific mineral deficiency in a livestock species. The students will offer a solution and/or design a system to prevent or correct a mineral deficiency. The solution will be presented in a written report or oral presentation. This project is brought to you by Kim Dieter with support from the CTE Online curriculum leadership team and detailed coordination provided by Team Lead Laura Gallardo.
