How often are officers elected for the local and state FFA levels?

Officers at both the local and state levels of the Future Farmers of America (FFA) are elected on a yearly basis. This annual election process allows for a fresh rotation of leadership, ensuring that new ideas and perspectives can be introduced consistently. The yearly cycle promotes active engagement among members and encourages participation in governance, as students have the opportunity to run for office and influence the direction of their chapters or state organization each year. This approach supports the development of leadership skills among FFA members, preparing them for future roles in agriculture and beyond.
