Agriculture Student Scholarship Recipients Announced in Saskatchewan

Released on May 5, 2025

Today, Saskatchewan students pursuing a post-secondary education in agriculture were awarded the Agriculture Student Scholarship.

"It's encouraging to see such passionate and knowledgeable youth in this year's Agriculture Student Scholarship submissions," Agriculture Minister Daryl Harrison said. "Saskatchewan producers are generational leaders when it comes to innovation and sustainability and that is why we continue to invest in the education of our future industry leaders. Congratulations to this year's recipients."  

Abbey Norek from Gerald, is this year's Agriculture Student Scholarship grand-prize $6,000 winner.

Norek's winning video highlighted an urban-rural disconnect when it comes to agriculture. She proposed education and advocacy as key solutions to this issue. Demonstrating strong personal commitment to this topic, she discussed her experience building a school garden using recycled materials, leading outreach programs on her family farm and lobbying for agriculture electives in her school division.  

Norek is excited about encouraging other young people involved in agricultural education.

"What it really comes down to is education and spreading awareness about what farming is really like so more people can build trust in it," Norek said. "Hopefully more young people want to come into this amazing industry."  

Noah Skoropad from Chamberlin, Rebecca Mayerle from Tisdale and Ty Annand from Nipawin were all awarded $3,000 as the runners-up. The recipients will be attending post-secondary at the University of Saskatchewan in the fall at the College of Agriculture and Bioresources seeking a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture degrees.
