Young farmer & student bursaries - Australian Agronomy Conference

The Australian Society of Agronomy is inviting young farmers (35 years and under) to apply for a grant to cover free registration plus up to $800 to cover travel and accommodation expenses to attend the 2012 Australian Agronomy Conference.

The Society is also offering bursaries to support students undertaking tertiary studies in agriculture or a related field, with these awards covering free conference registration and up to $500 to cover travel and accommodation expenses to attend the conference. Preference will be given to students who present a paper at the conference.

The Australian Agronomy Conference is being held in Armidale, from the 14th to 18th October 2012 (more information on the Conference is available here).
