Career Development Events provide students with an opportunity to apply skills learned in their agriculture, food and natural resource classes in a competitive setting. These events are held throughout the year and test student skills in specific occupational areas. Each event targets certain skills in various segments of the agricultural industry. Students compete individually in most events, and are ranked individually and in teams. The full list of New Jersey FFA Career Development Events can be found here
