Oklahoma Leadership Development Event (LDE) Greenhand FFA Practice Test

The official FFA colors, which are national blue and corn gold, were adopted at the National FFA Convention in 1929. This decision was significant as it established a standardized identity for the organization, reflecting its connection to agriculture and the broader American culture. National blue represents the sky and water, essential resources for agriculture, while corn gold symbolizes the golden fields of ripened corn, a staple crop in the United States. The adoption of these colors also helped unify FFA members and foster a sense of pride and belonging within the organization. This moment at the 1929 convention marked an important step in the development of the FFA's identity and branding, which continues to resonate with members today.
