Eligibility
This event is open to students in grades 6-9 who are agricultural education students, and are paid members of a chartered FFA chapter. Each student’s name must appear on the chapter’s FFA roster at least 10 days prior to competition above the chapter level.
Members who are participating in the area competition must first have qualified through earlier elimination brackets (if necessary.) The top two participants in each area are eligible for state competition. This CDE does have a national level of competition. A winning student may not participate in any other CDE that has a national competition. Also, no student who is already a member of a state winning CDE team that will participate in a national competition is eligible to participate. A student may only win one area speaking competition per year that leads to national competition.
