There are countless career opportunities in agriculture beyond farming; however, many students aren’t aware of the diverse possibilities.

America’s Farmers Grow Ag Leaders, sponsored by Bayer Fund and administered by the National FFA Organization, is offering more than $500,000 in scholarships to high school seniors and college students pursuing an ag-related field of study.

Students, including non-FFA members, can apply now for a $1,500 scholarship. The deadline to apply online at ffa.org/scholarships is Jan. 14, 2021. Two farmers must endorse the application by Jan. 21, 2021.

Winning scholarship applications will be judged and selected by National FFA from a pool of eligible applicants based on criteria set out at ffa.org/scholarships.
