• What role does agriculture play in your local county?
• What makes a cooperative different from a corporation?
Applicants must Include an introductory paragraph about themselves and why they should be considered for the scholarship.
Consideration for this scholarship award will be based on grade-point average, participation in extra-curricular activities, school organizations, community service, letters of recommendation, and grammar/content of the essay. This scholarship will not be awarded to any student who receives a scholarship which sufficiently finances all tuition, fees, and books during the student’s initial year of study.
