Young sheep industry professionals Harrison Mulquiny and Rachael Gawne were chosen from a field of applicants from NSW, Victoria and Queensland by a panel of industry judges.
Now entering its sixth year, the scholarship will provide opportunities and in-kind support worth up to $10,000 over 12 months.
Open to young people aged 18 to 30, the scholarship honours the late Peter Westblade, who was a Lockhart sheep producer with a passion for breeding profitable sheep.
He was also a keen supporter of young people in the industry who have an interest in agriculture.
