Leadership Development Events focus on creating situations for members to demonstrate their abilities in public speaking, decision making, communication and their knowledge of agriculture and the FFA organization. Team and individual events are used to reinforce what is taught in agricultural science classrooms.

All LDE events have elimination rounds at the district and area before the state level competition. Please refer to your district and area calendars for competition dates. 

State LDEs will take place VIRTUALLY, Dec 1-5, 2020.

****Due to the event dates beginning on Tuesday, Dec. 1, the entry deadline for State LDEs is WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25.  This is much earlier than it would be in a normal event year - please do NOT miss this registration deadline.****
