Recite the first & second paragraphs of the FFA Creed
I BELIEVE in the future of agriculture, with a faith born not of words but of deeds - achievements
won by the present and past generations of agriculturists; in the promise of better days through
better ways, even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the struggles of former
years.
I BELIEVE that to live and work on a good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is
pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an
inborn fondness for those associations which, even in hours of discouragement, I cannot deny.
