Monday's agriculture website of interest: NATIONAL FFA

Share |
Monday's website of agricultural interest is from the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Organization. This group is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education. Interested students join the chapter at their local school and may continue to be members through college.

FFA prepares students for premier leadership, personal growth and career success both within and outside of agriculture. Founded in 1928, the FFA organization represents a large diversity of over 300 careers in the food, fiber and natural resources industry. More than 7,000 FFA chapters are currently in existence; their programs are managed on a local,state and national level. Each chapter’s program of activities is designed with the needs of the students in mind. Activities vary greatly from school to school, but are based in a well-integrated curriculum. Chapter activities and FFA programs concentrate on three areas of our mission: premier leadership, personal growth and career success.
