As a member of the FFA and an advocate for agriculture, I believe it is important to actively promote and support my FFA chapter and the agricultural community. Agriculture plays a critical role in our society, providing us with food and clothing, as well as contributing to economic growth and environmental sustainability.

I can demonstrate this by being involved and volunteering in my community, and by educating my peers about the importance of agriculture and the role it plays in our everyday lives. To begin, I can advocate for my FFA chapter

This not only perfected my speaking skills, but also taught me something that will be useful in any career path that I may choose, and it all started in that 9th grade agriculture class when I took a major step into something I had feared my whole life.
