Can we support you to be the next leader in ag?
Rural Bank is committed to supporting the next generation of leaders in agriculture. We offer financial support through our scholarship program. Each year we seek first-time tertiary students focussing their studies on agriculture, agribusiness or related fields.
If you’re committed to the success of Australian agriculture, we want to hear from you!
Our program assists those offered a place at an Australian university, ag college or TAFE for the first time. You must be undertaking an ag-related degree. We’ll support your study-related expenses for one year and subject to academic results and course duration, the scholarship can be extended for a second year.
Understanding your plan to contribute to the Australian ag industry will be key, especially in our local communities.
