Meet a Star finalist already on the fast track to business success

Let’s meet Wylie Schwebach from the Moriarty FFA chapter in New Mexico, one of this year’s Star finalists in agricultural placement.

It’s National FFA Convention and Expo week! All week long, we are celebrating the best of the best on Market Day Report. The Organization recognizes members who rise to the top each year with the American Star Awards, like one of this year’s finalists, FFA member Wylie Schwebach.

Wylie’s SAE involves producing various crops marketed to consumers across the state and Texas. He also developed a local malt for craft brewers and aims to expand into construction and agricultural infrastructure.

The FFA helped him develop communication and management skills. He hopes to build a company that instills confidence in its products and provides opportunities for employees and their families.
