For the sixth consecutive year, Feed Energy is offering two $2,500 "Excellence in Ag" scholarships to students studying agriculture at a college or university in the Midwest. Recipients will include one undergraduate student and one graduate student. Interested students can find more information and apply for the scholarship at http://www.feedenergy.com/resource-center/for-students/. The application deadline is May 5, 2017.

Students must meet specific requirements to be eligible, including attending a college or university in one of the following states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota or South Dakota. They must have an agriculture-related major, be a sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student, and have a 3.0 to 4.0 GPA. The two scholarship recipients will be chosen based on their resume, references, and a two-page essay.
