About This Opportunity

The Edgar Pye Research Scholarship Trust was established in 1989 in memory of R. Edgar Pye, former President of the Society of Feed Technologists. The scholarship aims to sponsor a research-based project chosen competitively in any area of farm animal feeding including animal nutrition and management, feed production and marketing. The project can be undertaken in the UK, abroad or based on travel to study the appropriate subject. The scholarship is open to anyone who is either studying agriculture or a related subject, or who is already employed in the UK or Irish Animal Feed Industry, and is resident in the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland. Awards typically range from £1,500 to £3,000, with the 2025 total fund being £3,000. Recipients must present their research at an SFT conference within 18 months of the award.
