Viewers can be a part of the game by guessing the correct answer ahead of the episode's airtime. However, this can often come with its own set of problems. To simplify things, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details about the upcoming episode below.
July 6, 2022, Wednesday - Today's Final Jeopardy! question is from the category "Agriculture"
The final question for the upcoming episode of the show is:
"Being brought to the U.S. by a ship docking at San Francisco in 1851 helped lead to it now being a major crop in the Midwest."
This category requires no introduction, however because of how broad the subject is, it can frequently be very challenging. Additionally, this is a relatively uncommon topic for trivia enthusiasts.
The final round has a complex format in which the solution is provided to the contestants and they must figure out the question. This frequently complicates matters for the contestants.
Solution to the July 6, 2022, Final Jeopardy!
Solution: Soybeans.
Soybeans have quite a rich history in the U.S. Back in 1851, a U.S. merchant ship helped rescue 17 Japanese sailors from a drifting junk about 500 miles off the coast of Japan. Dr. Benjamin Franklin Edwards of Alton, Illinois, was one of the occupants of the merchant ship. After the rescue, the Japanese sailors gave Dr. Benjamin soybeans as a token of appreciation.
This merchant ship docked at San Francisco. From there, the seeds were spread across the country, making it a staple crop of the midwest.
The final round puts the players in a dilemma. They have to choose between playing the final round and risking losing their entire day's earnings, or walking away and forfeiting the opportunity to extend their streak to another day.
