JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – State Representative Bennie Cook and other members of the Missouri legislators who are former FFA members proudly reaffirmed their support for the National FFA Organization as they prepare to celebrate the fast-approaching 2025 FFA week.
Agriculture remains the backbone of Missouri’s economy, and the FFA continues to play a crucial role in preparing the next generation of agricultural leaders. Rep. Cook and his fellow legislators recognize the importance of agricultural education and are committed to ensuring that FFA programs continue to thrive in schools and communities across the state.
“As a proud former FFA member, I understand firsthand the tremendous impact this organization has on shaping the youth,” said Cook, R-Houston. “FFA encourages our young leaders to develop the skills necessary to help them gain essential knowledge in their field. It is an absolute honor to work with so many former FFA members who are now serving in the Missouri House of Representatives and Missouri Senate, united in our commitment to supporting the future of agriculture.”
