The FFA Emblem
The Cross-Section of an Ear of Corn: Provides the foundation for the emblem, just as corn provides the foundation for the emblem, just as corn provides the foundation of American agriculture. Since corn is grown in every state, it serves as a symbol of unity.
The Plow: Signifies labor and tillage of the soil, the backbone of agriculture and the foundation of our nation's strength.
The Rising Sun: Symbolizes progress and holds a promise that tomorrow will bring a new day that is filled with new opportunities.
The Owl: Recognized as a symbol of wisdom, symbolizes the knowledge necessary to be successful in agriculture.
The Eagle: Serves as a reminder of our freedom and ability to explore new horizons for the future of agriculture.
The words "Agriculture Education" and "FFA" are in the center to signify the combination of learning and leadership that is necessary for successful and progressive agriculturists.
