There are a total of 50 agricultural proficiency areas which attract the attention of many Iowa FFA members. FFA members first complete applications on a district level. The top two contestants in each district are advanced to state for review and evaluation. The first place applicant will receive a cash award of $100, and the second place person $50. Also, a special agricultural proficiency plaque to each of the top two individuals. In addition, we will present each gold award recipient a gold pin to wear on his/her FFA jacket. The total sponsorship needed for each proficiency area's cash awards, plaques and gold state award pins is $500.
Benefits to Sponsors: Sponsors will be invited to have a representative participate in presenting first- and second-place cash awards and plaques on stage during the Iowa FFA Leadership Conference in Ames and attend a special luncheon for the proficiency winners and their award area sponsor. This will provide an opportunity for each sponsor to meet with the top two winners and exchange conversation at the luncheon.
