CENTERVILLE —

The National FFA Organization is the largest student-run organization in the United States. Formerly known as Future Farmers of America, today the FFA is a diverse organization serving over half a million students nationally and over 12,000 right here in Iowa. While the FFA certainly still serves students with an interest in farming, it is also provides opportunities in medicine, research, technology, the environment, business, communications and leadership. By becoming proficient in judging livestock these students will become better livestock producers which in turn will help feed our growing global population.
