Which degree might be awarded for significant community service and agricultural involvement?

The American Degree is awarded to FFA members who have demonstrated outstanding accomplishments in their supervised agricultural experience (SAE) programs and have participated in community service and other significant agricultural involvement. Achieving this degree requires a high level of commitment, leadership, and community engagement emphasizing not only agricultural proficiency but also the development of skills that benefit the community.

This degree is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a student member of the FFA and signals exceptional dedication to both personal and community growth through agriculture. The rigorous requirements include a comprehensive understanding of agricultural practices, participation in FFA activities, and a commitment to community service. This combination of agricultural knowledge and community contribution perfectly represents what the American Degree stands for, making it the most appropriate choice for recognizing significant involvement in both areas.
