What is FFA?
FFA is an intra-curricular student organization for those interested in agriculture and leadership. It is one of the three components of agricultural education.
So, What do the letters FFA stand for?The official name of the organization is the National FFA Organization. The letters “FFA” used to stand for Future Farmers of America. These letters are a part of our history and our heritage that will never change. But FFA is not just for students who want to be production farmers; FFA also welcomes members who aspire to careers as teachers, doctors, scientists, business owners and more. For this reason, the name of the organization was updated in 1988 to reflect the growing diversity and new opportunities in the industry of agriculture.
Today, the National FFA Organization remains committed to the individual student, providing a path to achievement in premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.
What does FFA offer to youth?
