Grant Description
The Young Farmers Upskill and Invest Scholarship Program aims to support the next generation of Victorian food and fibre producers by offering tailored financial assistance for both education and practical investment. Eligible recipients can receive up to $5 000 towards approved study or training activities that build critical skills in farm business management, sustainable production, climate resilience, and technical expertise, alongside up to $5 000 to implement those learnings through on-farm projects, professional advice, or specialised equipment. The scholarship is designed to accelerate career progression for young farmers and those entering the sector, foster innovation and resilience within regional communities, and strengthen Victoria’s agricultural productivity by investing directly in individual capability and farm diversification.
