NT Farmers wishes Bella the best of luck with her studies, and looks forward to supporting her agricultural career in the Territory.
Quote from Ellie Ireson, previous scholar recipient (Alumni) “Congratulations to the new recipient of 2023. I was fortunate enough to be granted this award in 2022. The opportunities the scholarship provides has helped kick start my agriculture career through networking and industry experience. I look forward to seeing Isabella make the most of it.“
Quote from Simone Cameron, Director of Projects and Regions. “Whilst there were several applications this year the panel agreed that Bella McBean’s submission was the best, being able to support a Katherine local to excel her career in agriculture is one of the best parts of my role. I wish Bella the best experience throughout this program.”
