Attention all Mayo farm students - Applications open for 2026 John Feely Scholarships Draw
ICMSA has always taken seriously its duty to bring on the next generation of farmers.
With the old Irish saying in mind that ‘Mol an óige agus tiocfaidh sí’, the association is more committed than ever to helping those young farm students who are committing to a future in our sector.
ICMSA provides €6,000 per annum which is disbursed in four payments of €1,500 to a farm student from each of the four Administrative Areas of the association.
The names are selected by open draw at the association’s AGM which will take place in late November or early December at a date to be confirmed, and to qualify for the draw individuals must be enrolled in Year One of an agricultural course at one of the following agricultural colleges: Clonakilty, Kildalton, Pallaskenry,, Gurteen, Mountbellew, Ballyhaise or studying an agriculture related or veterinary course in a Third Level institution.
Applications from Mayo are especially welcome.
Applications can be made by any ICMSA member who in addition to nominating a named individual (who can be a child/relation) and the college/course the nominee is attending must also provide their own name, phone number and membership number.
Nominations must be received at ICMSA Head Office no later than 5pm Friday 20 November.
