Agricultural Proficiency Awards honor FFA members who, through supervised agricultural experiences, have developed specialized skills that they can apply toward their future careers.
Nationally, students can compete for awards in nearly 50 areas ranging from agricultural communications to wildlife management (see areas below). Proficiency awards are also recognized at local and state levels and provide recognition to members who are exploring and becoming established in agricultural career pathways.
Only members who receive the national finalist (NF) rating continue in competition. Information for national finalists will be posted to the Agricultural Proficiency Awards webpage on FFA.org and be sent to the applicant’s email address provided in the award application.
Award Ratings: National Finalist = NF Gold = G Silver = S Bronze = B
* If an applicant’s name is not listed, please contact your state staff for information.
