About FFA:
The letters "FFA" originally stood for Future Farmers of America. These letters are a part of our history and heritage that will never change. However, FFA is not just for students who want to be production farmers; it 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 after a vote of national convention delegates to reflect the growing diversity and new opportunities in the industry of agriculture.
