(Indianapolis) – April 30, 2025 – Indiana Farm Bureau recently awarded five scholarships to incoming or current college students pursuing careers in agriculture.
For the second year, INFB awarded the Ag Impact Scholarships, which highlight applicants who demonstrate a lasting effect on Indiana agriculture, to three recipients who each received a $2,000 scholarship.
The Ag Impact Scholarship program is designed to focus on the applicant’s current involvement, future commitment, and potential impact in agriculture as well as academic and career potential. All applicants must have been graduating high school seniors. The scholarship funds can be applied to tuition, housing, books or other educational expenses.
The three recipients of the 2025 Ag Impact Scholarship are listed below:
“Indiana Farm Bureau congratulates our scholarship winners,” said INFB President Randy Kron. “This generation of students shows so much promise and potential for the future of agriculture. I’m happy to see the passion for careers in agriculture remains strong in Indiana and that’s thanks to young people like these.”
Additionally, two $1,000 scholarships are offered to members of any of the Collegiate Farm Bureau chapters – Purdue, Vincennes, and Huntington universities. This year, Camille Thopy, of Shelby County, and Maggie Wolf, of Whitley County, received the Collegiate Farm Bureau scholarships. Thopy attends Purdue University pursuing a degree in agricultural education. Wolf attends Huntington University and is majoring in agricultural business and animal production.
Many county Farm Bureaus also offer annual scholarships for students in their area. To learn more, visit www.infb.org and visit the Scholarships and Grants page under the Resources tab.
