The Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of its 2021 scholarships. It is great to see the optimism that was shown through the selection process this year, with more applications from more locations across Canada than ever before.
The quality and potential within the youth of our industry is great and while we would like to assist all those who applied, we are limited to five scholarships. This year’s recipients illustrated the bright future that our youth are presenting to the agriculture industry and Simmental breed.
