The winners of the 2026 Agriculture Student Scholarship were revealed at the Saskatchewan legislature on Tuesday.

Four students were awarded the scholarship, which followed the theme: “Solutions to challenges in agriculture.”

Students were asked to explore emerging industry issues, how to communicate with the public, ways to collaborate within the industry, and to propose actionable solutions that support agriculture, according to the province.

The grand prize winner, Carson Green from Mossbank, was awarded $6,000 for his video focusing on the current labour needs facing agriculture in the province. His video called for coordinated efforts to build strong careers for youth.

“This year’s scholarship recipients are already strong ambassadors for our industry,” Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister David Marit said in the news release. “Investing in their education helps ensure Saskatchewan agriculture remains strong and competitive for generations to come.”

The scholarship supports Saskatchewan students who are passionate about agriculture and are committed to advancing the sector, the province said.

The program is funded through the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership.
