Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship

Applications open for 2025 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship

Dec 12, 2024 | 2:13 PM

Students pursuing an education in agriculture have a chance to earn some cash to help pay for it.

The 2025 Agriculture Student Scholarship includes four awards. There is a grand prize scholarship valued at $6,000 and three runner up scholarships at $3,000 each.

This helps even more young people develop the skills and knowledge they’ll need to grow their passion for agriculture, according to 2024 Agriculture Student Scholarship grand prize winner Marleigh Mann.

“Agriculture is a great industry to want to become involved in,” Mann said. “It’s a pretty cool scholarship to apply for.”

This year’s theme is ‘Solutions to Challenges in Agriculture.’ Scholarship applicants are encouraged to explore innovative farming practices, new technologies and creative ways industry can communicate with the public. The scholarship encourages applicants to share their personal perspectives on the future of agriculture in Saskatchewan.
