In what year did FFA welcome its first two female delegates?

The year when FFA welcomed its first two female delegates was indeed 1970. This marked a significant milestone in the organization's history, reflecting broader societal changes regarding gender roles and inclusivity in agriculture and education. Up until that point, the organization had been male-dominated, and the inclusion of female delegates represented a pivotal step toward gender equality within the organization.

In 1969, the National FFA Organization voted to allow girls to join, setting the stage for this change, but it was in 1970 that the first two females participated as delegates at the national convention. This change not only allowed for increased representation of women in agricultural education but also opened the door for many young women to pursue leadership roles within FFA and the agricultural industry.
