We Are the Future of Agriculture from National FFA Organization on Vimeo.




FFA is an intercurricular student organization for those interested in agriculture and leadership. It is one of three components of agricultural education. What do the letters FFA stand for? The official name of the organization is National FFA Organization.
​The letters “FFA” 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 after a vote of national convention delegates 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.

FFA continues to help the next generation rise up to meet those challenges by helping its members to develop their own unique talents and explore their interests in a broad range of agricultural career pathways. So today, we are still the Future Farmers of America. But, we are the Future Biologists, Future Chemists, Future Veterinarians, Future Engineers and Future Entrepreneurs of America, too.

Why should I become a member of the James Madison FFA Chapter?
     Simply put, the James Madison FFA is a dynamic youth organization that changes lives and prepares members for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

     The FFA develops members’ potential and helps them discover their talent through hands-on experience, which gives members the tools to achieve real-world success.  Many former James Madison FFA members credit their current success directly to their involvement in the FFA. 

     Members are future chemists, veterinarians, government officials, entrepreneurs, bankers, international business leaders, teachers and premier professionals in many career fields.  The FFA results in tangible rewards! 
Premier Leadership
     None of us are born leaders, but the James Madison FFA can help you become one.  FFA members strengthen their public speaking ability, improve their decision-making skills, learn to manage their time, and discover how to respect themselves and gain respect from others.  Premier leadership is developed throughout the FFA program – chapter meetings, camps, conventions, leadership conferences/workshops, officer training, and leadership development events.

Personal Growth
     The James Madison FFA provides its members the opportunity to grow personally through such programs as the Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE), membership degrees, proficiency awards, agriscience fairs, community service, and scholarships to name a few.

     Through the SAE program, many FFA members start their own businesses or work for an agricultural company throughout high school.  They learn skills such as budgeting, communication, responsibility, networking, and resource management.  The experience gained puts FFA members way ahead of their classmates when it comes to applying for college or being hired for the job.

     And speaking of college, James Madison FFA members earn hundreds of thousands of dollars each year in agricultural specific scholarships from such donors as the Pape Family Endowment, San Antonio Livestock Exposition, Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, National FFA Organization, Texas FFA Foundation, and more.

Career Success
     Do you know what you want to do after you finish school?  FFA can help you develop the skills you need to get there.  Don’t have a clue?  FFA can assist you in finding out which of agriculture’s 300 exciting career options match your interests and skills. 

     For students who ask their teachers, “When will I ever use this in the real world?” Career Development Events (CDE) are the answer.  The events are designed to help prepare members for a career in agriculture.  Classroom instruction comes alive as members demonstrate their skills in a competitive setting.  The FFA offers so many opportunities for competition at the chapter, district, area, state and national levels, you can hardly avoid being a winner!
