Missouri FFA Features 500+ American Degree Recipients

Once again, Missouri FFA leads the way with the most American Degree recipients. 505 students will be recognized Wednesday around 7:45pm during the 93rd National FFA Convention. The American Degree is the highest achievable degree available for an FFA member, recognizing a member’s dedication to their chapter and state association. In addition to earning their state degree, honorees must have earned at least $10,000 and invested at least $7,500, or earned at least $2,000 and worked at least 2,250 hours in excess of class time, on their supervised agricultural experience. At least 50 hours of community service spread over a minimum of three projects must also be documented.
