First, the ISB team has created infographics to share with your branches back at home to highlight the student competitions, awards, and scholarships ASABE offers. But, if you follow us on Instagram @asabe_isb (which you all should!), you might have seen some of these already. Some of the deadlines for the opportunities might have passed, but don't worry, these awards run every year!
The drive is linked here.
Two opportunities I would like to especially highlight are the competitions of Fountain Wars and AGCO National Student Design Competition. Fountain Wars is a great opportunity for your branch to travel to AIM, ASABE’s Annual International Meeting, and gain real-world engineering experience. More information can be found in the link above, and the deadline to submit intent to compete is April 15. Those interested should contact gayleb88@hotmail.com. The AGCO National Student Design Competition is an opportunity for seniors to show off their capstone projects with a chance to win real cash prizes! Cash awards of $1,250, $1,000, and $750 will be presented to the first, second, and third-place entries, and more information can be found in the link above. Intent to compete is due May 15.
Another great opportunity for students to get involved in the 2026 Agricultural Equipment Technology Conference held in Louisville, Kentucky, February 8-11. Limited free student registration is available for students who apply! AETC is a valuable networking opportunity for those looking to join the agricultural machinery field.
Lastly, I’d like to share that ISB is once again traveling to ASABE Headquarters in St. Joseph, Michigan, this March, and we would like your input on what to discuss! We have created a Google form where you can share your inputs for what we should bring to AIM this July.
The form can be found here.
Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear your input soon.
Ashley Butkus, President
for the ASABE ISB Team
