Capital Farm Credit’s GROW Your AgriRoots contest is now open to agricultural producers through June 30, offering $50,000 in total awards to support both rising stars and experienced trailblazers in agriculture.
Established to recognize and invest in outstanding agribusinesses, the GROW Your AgriRoots contest provides financial support to help producers continue growing their operations. Applicants are evaluated based on their commitment to agriculture, financial stewardship, leadership, community involvement, continuing education and sustainability practices.
The 2026 contest features two award categories. “Rising Star” applicants have less than two years of experience, while “Trailblazer” applicants have between two and 10 years in the industry.
Applications must be submitted online by midnight on June 30 to be considered.
In 2025, four winners each received $10,000 – two newer producers and two more established operators – and additional finalists were awarded $1,000 each, bringing the total prize pool to $50,000.
