A prevailing truth about human nature is that change can be tough. That’s especially true when it comes to iconic imagery that inspires pride, reflection, motivation and plenty more inside millions of people.The FFA emblem is all of those things. It’s a mark that has stood the test of time, a familiar friend that takes us to our roots and stands for our pursuit of premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.The largest and most recent change came in 1989 when national convention delegates voted to change the words in the emblem from “Vocational Agriculture” to “Agricultural Education.”
