Which of the following is a focus area of the POA?

• A. Growing leaders
• B. Animal welfare
• C. Soil testing
• D. Public relations

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that the POA (Program of Activities) organizes a chapter’s work into three broad focus areas to guide leadership development, community involvement, and agricultural progress. Growing Leaders is one of those three focus areas, so it directly represents the aim of developing members’ leadership abilities through planning, leading, and evaluating chapter activities.

The POA serves as a planning tool to ensure balanced growth across these areas: leadership development, service to the community, and strengthening agriculture. While topics like animal welfare, soil testing, and public relations can appear as activities within the POA, they aren’t the designated focus areas themselves.
