Agriculture Leadership Activities

Agriculture is the foundation of our country's progress and independence. Without successful agricultural leaders, our food, animals and even the natural world that surrounds us can fall victim to mismanagement. Teaching agricultural leadership activities not only helps the future leaders to be confident in their decisions but also secures our future as a strong and efficient environmental community.
Gather a group of future leaders, and plan an activity that challenges them as a team, such as white-water rafting or camping. The group will see it as a fun activity, but challenges will force them to work together and overcome fears.
Assign a student or aspiring leader to guide and assist others in completing an agricultural task, such as caring for an animal or an agricultural mechanics operation. Do not allow the student leader to help the others complete the task; the leader should step in only when necessary.
