OKLAHOMA CITY — Applications for the 2025-26 Agriculture Youth Council are now available for Oklahoma high school students entering their senior year in the fall of 2025.

Members will meet once a month during the school year. Activities include visits to agricultural companies and organizations, opportunities to learn about the legislative process, and job shadows with industry professionals.

The Agriculture Youth Council was created in 2019 by Oklahoma Secretary of Agriculture Blayne Arthur to develop future agricultural leaders by teaching professional skills, exposing members to diverse agriculture operations, and offering short-term job experience in agriculture fields.

High school seniors from all Oklahoma counties are eligible to apply. Membership in 4-H/FFA is NOT required.

All applications must be received by 11:59 pm on May 22.

Applications are available at https://ag.ok.gov/agriculture-youth-council/.
