The FFA tribute this week goes to Daniel Hartzell, Ohio State FFA Reporter for the year.

Hartzell is from Union City, Ohio, and he grew up on a farm there where they raise corn, soybeans and Red SImmental cattle.

The highlights of his service has been going to FFA Camp and got to meet members from across Ohio. He has also enjoyed meeting following agriculturists from across the state.

He plans to major in agronomy and come back to the family farm and be an agronomist.
