Which statement about the Greenhand degree is true?

• A. It is the basic local degree for first-year high school FFA members and is symbolized with a bronze pin.
• B. It requires active SAE.
• C. It is awarded after two years.
• D. It is for college students.

Answer: (A)

Greenhand is the entry-level recognition in FFA, awarded to first-year high school members in a local chapter. The bronze pin marks this initial degree and signals that a student has begun their journey in agricultural education and FFA. It’s earned early in the high school years, not after two years, and it’s for high school members, not college students. While starting an SAE can be part of the FFA experience, an active SAE is not the defining requirement for this degree.
