As the countdown continues to the 98th National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, the organization is also focusing on preparing the next generation of agricultural leaders.

Ashli Weinrich, FFA Program Specialist, joined RFD-TV’s Suzanne Alexander to talk about how events like the Next Gen Conference are shaping the future of the organization and its members.
