Scholarship Description

National Rice Month is a time to celebrate the harvest of the small but mighty grain that has captivated Americans’ hearts and stomachs for more than 300 years. Nearly 85 percent of the rice consumed in the United States is grown right here on family farms across six states: Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Texas. That’s a fun fact that not many people are aware of and that’s where you come in.

Applicants must create an original, short (3 minutes or less) video about U.S. rice, National Rice Month, and the importance of rice to you, your state, or the world in general. Once you have recorded your video, upload it to YouTube or Vimeo. Complete the entry form and submit your video. Entries must be received by October 31st. After you’ve uploaded your video, share it on your social media. Encourage your friends, family, and teachers to watch and vote for your video. For inspiration watch past winner's videos!
