Move over, rifle raffles and guided day hunts! While Montana’s outdoor sporting culture usually takes the spotlight, this latest giveaway proves that the hardworking ranchers keeping the Big Sky State running are just as vital to our heritage. And this time, the prize is a whole different kind of horsepower.
A massive congratulations goes out to Bozeman agricultural producer Dale Flikkema! As the lucky winner of the Montana Stockgrowers Association’s (MSGA) Blue and Gold Raffle back in the middle of May, Dale just took delivery of a premium Massey Ferguson MF7S.155 tractor and loader right in time for the hectic seasonal rush.
But the real win stretches far beyond one Bozeman farm. This unique partnership between MSGA and Massey Ferguson is designed to fuel the future of Montana agriculture. Half of all ticket proceeds go directly back into local FFA chapters, funding crucial student travel, leadership conventions, and educational activities.
Want to get in on the action for next year? Tickets are officially live for the 2026 raffle, featuring the chance to win a Massey Ferguson MF6S.155 for 200 hours (or four months) of heavy-duty work. Tickets are just $20 each (or 6 for $100), with the big drawing happening on December 5, 2026. Snag yours from an FFA member, an MSGA board member, your local Massey Ferguson dealer, or online at www.mtbeef.org to support our future ag leaders!
