How Can You Support High School Vo-Ag Classes?

Nov 07, 2023


Donate to the Bushels for Ag program!


For over a decade, Key Cooperative has been proud to partner with local FFA chapters for a one-of-a-kind program: Bushels for Ag.

At the beginning of each school year, Key Field Marketing Specialists visit participating schools and give a presentation to the students. Your Cooperative then donates the first 100 bushels of corn and 40 bushels of beans to each class. The students put together a grain marketing plan with the help of their instructor and sell those bushels, plus any additional bushels that are donated. Members of the Key Grain team work with the students throughout the school year and review the class’s success in the spring.

The goal is for these students to get real-life, hands-on experience in grain marketing while earning money for their FFA chapters and ag programs!

Farmers Can Donate Too
All Key Cooperative producers are invited to support their local school’s ag program by donating additional bushels to Bushels for Ag. If you are interested, simply scan the QR code and fill out the donation form, designating how many bushels you’d like transferred directly from your Key account to the FFA chapter of your choice.
