The 2023 Taiwan Agricultural Youth Exchange Program is currently accepting applications from Kansas State University Undergraduate students who are interested in agriculture and would like to represent Kansas in a week-long International Exchange Program in Taiwan. Up to six K-State Undergraduate students will be selected to tour agricultural facilities and businesses in Taiwan to learn more about Taiwanese agriculture and culture.
Exports play an important role in Kansas agriculture. In 2022, Kansas exported $225 million in agricultural products to Taiwan and was the state’s sixth-largest trading partner. Exports have been steadily increasing for the last five years.
A $1,000 scholarship will be awarded to each student selected to participate in the program, which is a tremendous opportunity for K-State students to experience agriculture on a global level. K-State has partnered with a university in Taiwan to provide an agriculture student exchanges in 2024 and open even more agriculture opportunities between the two countries.
