The 4-H AgriScience curriculum has been created to cultivate the emerging study of biotechnology and business/economics in the agriculture industry through hands-on experiential learning activities and online learning courses for youth. The project has eight engaging units, designed for use with 11-13 year olds. All are available on-line through the National 4-H Resource Library, located at  http://www.4-h.org/agriscience/.

• Burn a Nut explores how agricultural crops can be used to create fuel, and investigates ethanol-based fuels according to their biological properties.
• Plant Oils Matter delves into fatty acids, and how different types change the characteristics of home made soap.
• Green at Home investigates the emerging bioproducts industry, and how they compare to their less green counterparts.
• Engineering a Better Oil identifies sources and characteristics of plant oils and animal fats in foods, and how the different types of fats affect our health.
• Transporting Agriculture  considers the transportation and storage impacts on the economics of agriculture through the principles of buoyancy and displacement.
• Design an Egg Catcher uses the engineering process to help students recognize the economics in materials tests and design constraints.
• Soy Ink tests the properties of soy oil and soy lecithin in making ink, to recognize the properties of agricultural crops making them sustainable substitutes in industry.
• A Scientist and Engineer Make Bio based Products recounts the friendship and team work between Henry Ford and George Washington Carver, which resulted in car parts being made from soybeans.
• What makes NesQuik™ quick? explores the properties of water and soy lecithin, utilizing food labels to learn about chemistry.
• Bio plastic  practices using the scientific method to test the different properties of plastic and investigates how crops are utilized to make sustainable industrial products.
