The National Cattlemen’s Foundation is accepting applications for the 2022-2023 CME Group Beef Industry Scholarship. Ten scholarships of $1,500 each will be given to outstanding students pursuing careers in the beef industry.

Students studying education, communication, production, research, or other areas related to the beef industry are eligible to apply for the annual scholarship program. Eligible applicants must be graduating high school seniors or full-time undergraduate students enrolled at a two-or-four-year institution. The application includes a one-page letter outlining the student’s career goals related to the beef industry and a 750-word essay describing an issue in the beef industry and offering solutions to the program. The applicant or a family member must be a member of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association. The deadline is November 12, at midnight, Central Time. The winners get announced at the 2022 Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show in February 2022. “We’re proud to partner with the National Cattlemen’s Foundation and the NCBA to help advance educational opportunities for these hardworking students,” says Tim Andriesen, Managing Director of Agricultural Products with the CME Group.
