Noble Research Institute, a trusted resource for farmers and ranchers since 1945, has partnered with Powerflex Supply, and the National Grazing Lands Coalition, to present the Land & Legacy Scholarship, a program centered on providing registration assistance to producers attending online or in-person delivery of Noble educational courses.
Noble’s growing suite of programs led by experienced facilitators focuses on participant success through a comprehensive educational curriculum designed to promote land stewardship through management, building soil health and keeping farmers and ranchers on the land. Participants gain practical insights while connecting with like-minded peers to learn how to implement innovative solutions to address their personal farm and ranch challenges, improve their operation and increase their bottom line.
The Land & Legacy Scholarship was developed as part of a recently formed partnership between Noble and Powerflex Supply, with Powerflex investing $20,000 toward the 2025 scholarship program. The collaboration aims to assist Noble in furthering its mission to guide farmers and ranchers in applying regenerative principles that yield healthier soil, more productive grazing land and business success.
“We are excited to offer the Land & Legacy Scholarship to producers seeking to modify their land and business management practices regeneratively,” said Hugh Aljoe, director of ranches, outreach and partnerships at Noble Research Institute. “We are grateful to partners like Powerflex Supply and the National Grazing Lands Coalition, who value our mission and work to restore our nation’s grazing lands by supporting the farmers and ranchers who maintain it.”
In 2024, Noble’s educational courses reached more than 400 producers across 19 states. With the generosity of Powerflex Supply, the organization looks forward to making its online and in-person courses financially accessible to many more participants.
“Powerflex Supply is thrilled to partner with the National Grazing Lands Coalition and Noble Research Institute on the Land & Legacy Scholarship,” said Troy Goldhammer, CEO of Powerflex Supply. “We believe the future of farming and ranching hinges on adopting regenerative techniques. With the exceptional education provided by Noble Research Institute, the extensive reach and advocacy of NatGLC, and Powerflex’s dedication to supporting grazing infrastructure planning while offering trusted and affordable rotational grazing products, we are excited to contribute to this vital initiative.”
Scholarships are granted quarterly, with applications for quarter one opening on Wednesday, Dec. 4. Interested producers can visit www.grazinglands.org/landandlegacyscholarship for more information or to apply.
