The Outstanding County Young Farmers & Ag Professionals Program Award recognizes county Young Farmers & Ag Professionals committees that have done an outstanding job of promoting agriculture and Farm Bureau in their counties.
Awards will be given to the top three county Young Farmers & Ag Professionals (YF&AP) programs. Of the top three counties, the highest-scoring county program will be awarded $1,000 to take back to their county Farm Bureau. The two runner-ups will be awarded an amount of $500 to take back to their county Farm Bureau. These funds will be allocated to improve an existing program or aid in the creation of a new YF&AP county program/event.
The application process closes on October 31.
Counties also may receive recognition for the Most Volunteer Hours, Dollars and Pounds of Food donated to the Feeding America Food Bank or affiliate (any denomination of each).
Recognition will take place during the Innovate & Grow Conference presented by the Indiana Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ag Professionals, held annually in February. Winning counties may be asked to share their county’s activities during the conference.
