Each participant must be a current dues-paying FFA member with their name on their chapter’s roster, and be in good standing with their local chapter, state Association and national FFA organization. To be eligible to be an FFA member, each student must be enrolled in an agricultural education class during the school year in which they are a member and compete. Once a student places in the top six of a grade level and pathway in the national Agriscience Fair, they are no longer eligible to compete in that same division and pathway again.
