Ag scholarship available for Saskatchewan students

Applications are now being accepted for the 2023 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship Program.

Students apply by submitting a three-minute video or 1,000-word essay discussing the theme of farming and the environment.

Applicants are encouraged to explore the idea of environmental sustainability within farming and the importance of public perception of modern farming practices with a focus on progressive environmental practices, and the importance of relaying that message to the public to enhance trust in the industry.

Agriculture Minister David Marit said the scholarship is an investment in the bright minds of the province and ensures the sustainability of the sector.”
