The National FFA President says the organization is developing the next generation of talent in the workforce.
Amara Jackson is the first National FFA President from Michigan in more than 70 years.
“Our students are gaining skills that are realistic, tangible,” she says. “They’re going to be prepared to be teachers or lawyers or farmers or anything in our world. And because of FFA, because of agricultural education, our students are ready to be that next talent pipeline.”
She tells Brownfield the youth leadership program has the most room for growth with students still finding their footing.
