Novus Scholar Programs

At Novus, we feel a deep responsibility to transfer the knowledge we gain and the technology innovations we develop to people around the world who can use them to improve agricultural practices in their local communities.

Through various Novus Scholar Programs, scholarships are awarded to support the research and work of students and professors who are or will be industry leaders in agriculture. In addition to scholarships, Novus shares our own internal resources, industry contacts, and research methodologies to offer program participants exposure to new perspectives and practices.

On this page you will find a few examples of the continuously expanding network of talented people we are working with to improve agriculture practices around the world.
