SAE

SAE stands for Supervised Agricultural Experience in the context of the Future Farmers of America (FFA). It is a key component of the FFA program, allowing students to engage in hands-on agricultural learning. Through SAE, students can apply what they've learned in the classroom to real-world agricultural settings.

There are several types of SAEs, including:

1. Entrepreneurship SAE: Students run their own agricultural business, such as raising livestock or growing crops.

2. Placement SAE: Students work for an agricultural business or organization, gaining experience and skills in a professional environment.

3. Research SAE: Students conduct agricultural research projects, often involving experimentation and data collection.

4. Exploratory SAE: Students explore various agricultural careers and fields, gaining insight and knowledge without a specific project focus.

SAEs help students develop skills, gain experience, and build a portfolio that can be valuable for future education and career opportunities.
