Students completed an online application and essay focused on explaining their thoughts on what the farmer of the future may look like, and what tools they will need to meet the needs of future generations. Scholarship eligibility was limited to students of CVA member-owners and CVA employees who are pursuing a career in agriculture.

“The scholarship recipients exemplify the heart and work ethic of the producers we are proud to work with every day,” said Carl Dickinson, CVA President/CEO. “CVA’s annual scholarship program is one of the many ways your cooperative supports future leaders, innovators, and spokespeople of agriculture.”

The 2024 CVA Scholarship program will launch Fall 2023.
