![Page 14: Introduction to FFA and Agricultural Education](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103008/5681685d550346895dde9b9b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
FFA CreedI believe in the future of agriculture, with a faith born not of words but of
deed achievements won by the present and past generations of agriculturists; in the promise of better days through better ways, even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the
struggles of former years.
![Page 15: Introduction to FFA and Agricultural Education](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103008/5681685d550346895dde9b9b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
FFA CreedI believe that to live and work on a
good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an inborn fondness for those associations which, even in hours of discouragement, I cannot
deny.
![Page 16: Introduction to FFA and Agricultural Education](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103008/5681685d550346895dde9b9b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
FFA CreedI believe in leadership from ourselves and respect from others. I believe in my own
ability to work efficiently and think clearly, with such
knowledge and skill as I can secure, and in the ability of progressive agriculturists to serve our own and the public
interest in producing and marketing the product of our
toil.
![Page 17: Introduction to FFA and Agricultural Education](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103008/5681685d550346895dde9b9b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
FFA CreedI believe in less dependence on
begging and more power in bargaining; in the life abundant
and enough honest wealth to help make it so for others as well
as myself; in less need for charity and more of it when
needed; in being happy myself and playing square with those
whose happiness depends upon me.
![Page 18: Introduction to FFA and Agricultural Education](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103008/5681685d550346895dde9b9b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
FFA CreedI believe that American
agriculture can and will hold true to the best traditions of our national life and that I can exert
an influence in my home and community which will stand
solid for my part in that inspiring task.
