The Western Farm Show hosted its annual Battle of the Border + FFA Day during their 64th Annual Western Farm Show on Friday, February 20th. More than 4600 FFA kids attended the event to network with colleges, agricultural equipment dealers, agribusinesses, participate in educational seminars and compete in the Battle of the Border Competition. All Canned goods collected were donated to Harvesters to support local families in need.

This year's competition brought in 5,791 canned goods, with Kansas contributing slightly more than Missouri, totaling 3,254 items.

FFA Day was sponsored by Vermeer Agriculture, which will donate $1000 to one participating Kansas Chapter and one participating Missouri Chapter. Winners will be announced soon!

Western Farm Show is proud to put on this annual event with supporting partners such as American Royal Association, Missouri FFA Association, Kansas FFA Association, Missouri Farmers Care.
