Ballance Agri-Nutrients offers up to four scholarships per annum to encourage people to enter the agricultural industry. Each scholarship is valued at $4,000 per annum and can be held for a maximum of three years. The awards are made to subsidise study at tertiary level in either the general primary industry field or in engineering.
The company recognises that the continued success of New Zealand's agricultural industry is dependent upon the quality of people it attracts. The changing face of farming, with its increasing reliance on science and technology, means that quality tertiary education plays an even greater role in the industry than in the past. Ballance Scholarships allow New Zealand's talented youth to take advantage of the training on offer in this country.
Ballance Scholarships are open to immediate family members of any Ballance shareholder or company employee.
