The FFA Emblem
Parts of the Emblem:
The cross section of the ear of corn provides the foundation of the emblem, just as
corn has historically served as the foundation crop of American agriculture. It is also a
symbol of unity, as corn is grown in every state of the nation.
The __________________ signifies progress and holds a promise that tomorrow will
bring a new day glowing with opportunity.
The ____________________signifies labor and tillage of the soil, the backbone of
agriculture and the historic foundation of our countryʼs strength.
The ____________________ is a national symbol, which serves as a reminder of our
freedom and ability to explore new horizons for the future of agriculture.
The _________________, long recognized for its wisdom, symbolizes the knowledge
required to be successful in the industry of agriculture.
The words "Agricultural Education" and "FFA" are emblazoned in the center to
signify the combination of learning and leadership necessary for progressive
agriculture.
