Applicants must be studying agronomy, animal science, ag business, agricultural production, agricultural mechanics, or studies intended to effect change on the agricultural landscape.
 
They say you'll need to provide a 500 word essay on why you're studying for, and pursuing a career in agriculture, along with proof of enrollment, transcripts, and leadership and community involvement.
