Prepared Public Speaking LDE
By participating in the Prepared Public Speaking LDE, FFA members are given the opportunity to exhibit their ability to prepare and present a factual speech on a specific agricultural issue in a well thought out, logical manner. Event participants are required to deliver a prepared speech on one agricultural topic. The speech must be six to eight minutes in length. Judges question the speaker for five minutes after the speech is given. Winners are selected on the written manuscript, speech delivery, content, and response to judges' questions.
Manuscripts are due electronically by April 15, 2024.
