Did you know that unlike many parts of the economy, employment opportunities for graduates in the agriculture sector are very strong in Australia.  Recent research shows  a vacancy rate of 6 jobs for every graduate of an agriculture related course.  To encourage more young people to study in this area, the Horizon Scholarship program  is offering $5000 per year to selected students who enrol in a agriculture related course of study and commit to a career in the sector.

Application for scholarships close on 1^st February, 2013.
