Once in a Lifetime Experience: FFA is helping shape the future of agriculture with trips abroad

January 29, 2025 02:09 PM

Over 70 FFA state officers started the New Year by exploring farm practices in Spain and Portugal. The FFA’s International Leadership Program (ILLSO) is designed to develop awareness of global agriculture and enhance cultural competency.

ILSSO Program Specialist Joe Martin spoke with RFD-TV’s Suzanne Alexander about the trip, student feedback, and how the program will help shape the future of agriculture.
