Grit board game

The Agriculture Industry Training Organisation has developed this board game to familiarise school pupils with farming terminology and practices. It is a cross between games like Trivial Pursuit and Monopoly, involving up to six players or teams who chose a farm type – dairy, sheep, sheep and cattle, orchard, crop or viticulture – and move around the board by answering questions.
