Hello
Does anyone know how ffa groups do the tractor project’s. Are the tractors and parts needed to restore it donated or do they buy them.
Thanks

Every one I was associated was donated by dad or grandpa. The parts/ paint were paid for by dad or grandpa. Titan had a tire program where they donated tires as long as they received some recognition for the donation.

when ever a tractor was brought in to our FFA for rebuild or restore, the owner bought the items needed. if it was a donated tractor for learning purposes, most items were donated by area merchants or purchased with FFA money from their money raised activity money.

The tractor restoration compotation is sponsored by Delo/Chevron Standard Oil. At the local level the oil distributers that sell that brand are involved. Some much more than others, as in most things. From hear say the local oil company has had place to store parts tractors and bits and pieces that farmer want gone from their place. Don't know how the stuff is split between kids wanting stuff that is there.

From what I know the students need to hustle and get their own support. That is where mom and dad, as well as grandparents come in. As well as ag teachers that are good promoters of their kids.  Businesses will be more willing to give if the teacher has a track record of pushing kids so the projects get done.

ok thank you. I’ll have to talk to the only ffa in our county. Was toying around the idea to donate a allis B we have laying on the farm. There not worth a lot to sell and don’t want to see go to scrap.
