The National FFA Organization set a record-high student membership of 945,988, an increase of 11% from last year.
In addition, the number of FFA chapters continues to grow, increasing by 168 this year, resulting in 9,163 chapters in the U.S., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
National FFA CEO Scott Stump says, “It’s exciting to see our numbers grow and know we continue to influence the next generation of leaders,” adding, “We’re excited to see the enthusiasm for agricultural education and FFA reflected in our membership.”
The top five membership states are Texas, California, Georgia, Illinois and North Carolina.
