What year did the first live webcast of the National FFA Convention premiere on FFA.org?

The first live webcast of the National FFA Convention premiered in 2004 on FFA.org, marking a significant milestone in the organization's efforts to utilize technology and expand access to its events. This initiative allowed individuals who were unable to physically attend the convention to engage virtually, thus broadening the reach and impact of the event. The introduction of live webcasting was part of FFA's ongoing commitment to innovation and creating opportunities for members and supporters to stay connected with the organization's activities. Over the years, this approach has continued to evolve, enhancing the FFA experience for viewers around the world and demonstrating the importance of adapting to changing technologies in agricultural education.
