The correct answer is: Henry C. Groseclose

Henry C. Groseclose is widely recognized as the father of the Future Farmers of America (FFA) due to his pivotal role in founding the organization. He was a prominent agricultural educator in Virginia and envisioned an organization that would provide young people with opportunities to develop leadership skills, engage in agricultural education, and promote rural community development. In 1928, he helped to establish the FFA, drawing attention to the importance of agricultural vocational training as well as the potential of youth in agriculture. This foundational work laid the groundwork for the organization to grow and evolve into what it is today, making Groseclose a crucial figure in FFA history. His influence is reflected in the commitment to leadership, citizenship, and community service that remains central to FFA's mission.
