The National FFA Organization, formerly known as the Future Farmers of America, is a national youth organization of 495,046 student members who are preparing for leadership and careers in the science, business and technology of agriculture as part of 7,242 local FFA chapters in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. The National FFA, headquartered in Indianapolis, changed to its present name in 1988, in recognition of the growth and diversity of agriculture and agricultural education.
