DICKINSON, N.D. Across the western United States, you’ll hear a common refrain, said Jim Rose, state adviser for Montana FFA.
“Everyone wants an ag program, but to try to find a teacher to do it with is the challenge,” he said.
Montana has 98 agriculture education programs, and Rose said that’s a number that has climbed over the past decade, during which time they’ve added one to three programs per year.
