Applications Now Open For G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship

Feb 03, 2021

The G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship is back.

G3, in partnership with Agriculture in the Classroom Canada (AITC-C), will award six scholarships of $4,000 each to students from across Canada* beginning their post-secondary education, in any discipline.

“The G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship was a great success in 2020, with thousands of votes cast for the videos that were submitted by an impressive field of bright young Canadians,” said Don Chapman, President and CEO of G3. “Our judges had a difficult task choosing winners from so many great entries and I’m sure this year will be no different.”

To apply, students must establish and explain their vision for the future of agriculture in Canada in a two-to-four-minute video essay. Students must also identify how their studies will help achieve their vision for the future of Agriculture. In addition to the scholarship, the winners’ school will also receive $1000.

Last year’s inaugural scholarships were awarded to six students beginning their post-secondary education in university and college across Canada.

“AITC-C is excited to be involved in helping the next generation of leaders reach their post-secondary educational goals,” said Johanne Ross, Executive Director of AITC-C. “Allowing youth to think innovatively and creatively about food and farming will help them to understand the role agriculture plays, not only their daily life, but also as a future career opportunity!”

Entries will be judged by a panel of industry professionals, and the public via online voting.

Applications for the G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship are due by April 1st, 2021.

Video: Winter Service Inspections for John Deere Equipment - The FarmCast Ep64

The FarmCast, host Troy Randall speaks with Doug Luedke, Vice President of Service, and Davin Peterson, Executive Vice President of Aftermarket at 21st Century Equipment, to discuss the importance of proactive service and how it helps farmers reduce downtime during their busiest seasons. The conversation focuses on the Winter Service Inspection Program, a comprehensive approach designed to keep equipment running at peak performance and limit costly in-season breakdowns through preventative maintenance and expert technician support.

Doug and Devin explain how 21st Century Equipment’s service teams have evolved to meet the needs of today’s connected machines. With more technology and data integrated into modern equipment, technicians now play a vital role in both mechanical repairs and precision ag support. Through advanced diagnostics, machine monitoring, and John Deere’s Expert Alerts, they can identify and address potential issues before they become major problems—saving customers valuable time, money, and frustration.

Throughout the discussion, the team shares real-world success stories demonstrating how proactive inspections and customer-focused service help maximize uptime and efficiency for every operation. Whether it’s a large tractor, combine, or small mower, the goal remains the same: to provide trusted, reliable support that helps farmers and landowners stay productive and confident in their equipment year-round.
