Small Grains Institute offers Grants for 2025

The Small Grains Institute Committee is comprised of 10 members from the farm community, industry, and extension. The two-day event focuses on educational programs featuring leading edge topics and a farm equipment show held each February at the Alerus Center in Grand Forks, North Dakota.

Since its inception in 1990, the SGI’s mission has been to help educate and provide information to the small grain growers in our region. The continued growth and success of the International Crop Expo has allowed the SGI to establish a fund that will provide financial support for programs and/or meetings that coincide with that mission.

The Small Grains Institute Committee is proud to announce that they distributed grants in the past year to the following recipients to help educate in the region:

North Dakota Grain Growers Association

North Dakota Barley Council

Organic Crop Improvement Association Minnesota #1

Minnesota Association of Wheat Growers

Minnesota Barley Growers Association

The committee is also proud that scholarships have been awarded to an Ag student with the University of Minnesota–Crookston and North Dakota State University for $1,000.00 each. This program was established with the two Universities in 2014 and was completed in 2020.

The 2025 grant application deadline will be Wednesday, December 4, 2024. Programs should be completed on or before 12/31/25. Upon receiving the applications, they will be reviewed and awarded no later than December 31, 2024.
