This scholarship represents Bayer's commitment to investing in the next generation of Canadian agriculture and food production professionals. Twelve successful applicants are selected each year based on demonstrated academic standards and leadership in the community. The selection of successful applicants is made by an independent panel. Preference is given to two applicants of Canadian Indigenous heritage, supporting diversity in the agricultural sector and recognizing the important role of Indigenous communities in Canadian agriculture.

Established in 2021 by Edward Reddy, the Growing Minds in Agriculture Technology Scholarship is available to students who have completed an Agricultural Sciences diploma and are returning to full-time studies in the Fall at Lakeland College in the Bachelor of Agriculture Technology at the Vermilion campus. The scholarship is awarded based on academic achievement and demonstration of how the student has overcome barriers to achieve their educational goals and enhance their career opportunities. Applicants must be Canadian citizens and include a 500-word essay answering the question: How have you overcome barriers to achieve your educational goals and enhance your career opportunities? The scholarship provides financial support to help students continue their agricultural education at the bachelor's degree level.
