In what year was the official dress uniform adopted, which restricted membership to boys only?

The year when the official dress uniform was adopted and membership was restricted to boys only is 1930. This was a significant milestone in the history of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), as it marked the establishment of standardized clothing for members to promote a professional image and unity among participants. The adoption of the official dress also symbolized the growing organization’s commitment to fostering agricultural education and promoting a sense of community among young farmers.

At that time, the FFA was predominantly male, reflecting the societal norms of the era. It wasn't until later that the organization began to evolve and later allowed for female membership and the evolution of the dress code to be more inclusive, leading to the current policies that embrace diversity within the organization. The decisions made in 1930 were influential in shaping the future of FFA and its inclusivity efforts.
