Fifteen agriculture students have been selected as the fifth class of recipients of the GROWMARK Foundation scholarship.
From Wisconsin, Lauren Thompson of Woodville was among the recipients. She is studying animal science and industry at Kansas State University
"We are pleased to provide financial support to these fifteen outstanding students," said GROWMARK Corporate Communications Manager Amy Bradford. "Their pursuit of higher education in agriculture will position them well to potentially become a part of the GROWMARK System in the future, whether that may be employment at GROWMARK or an FS member cooperative, or as a farmer-owner of their local cooperative."
More than 180 students from across the United States and Ontario, Canada, applied for the award.
