FFA Career Development Events

Each year the UWRF College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences hosts two FFA Career Development Event (CDEs) days where middle and high school ag education students compete. FFA CDEs help connect what students learn in the classroom to real world scenarios. They also help develop individual responsibility, foster teamwork and promote communication.


 

Falcon Ag Challenge - Oct. 11, 2024

The Falcon Ag Challenge primarily serves Minnesota teams and offers select state qualifying events for Minnesota FFA Regions 4 and 8.


 

Agricultural Technology Contest - April 5, 2025

The UWRF Agricultural Technology Contest has been an annual event since 1961, bringing nearly 1000 Wisconsin FFA students to campus each spring. Events cover a range of ag topics including business, communications, mechanics, animal science, food science, natural resources and plant science. Some events qualify students to participate in state or national FFA CDEs.
