The 51st annual Harvest Bowl program at North Dakota State University (NDSU) will take place on November 14 and 15. The event honors exceptional agriculturists, student athletes, and business leaders across the region.
Each year, the Harvest Bowl recognizes the efforts of outstanding agriculturists in 53 North Dakota counties and 10 western Minnesota counties. It also awards scholarships to deserving student-athletes and celebrates an agribusiness leader who has made a significant impact on agriculture and business.
This year, 25 NDSU student athletes will receive Harvest Bowl scholarships in recognition of their dedication and achievement both on the field and in the classroom. These scholarships reflect the university’s commitment to promoting academic excellence and leadership in agriculture-related disciplines.
The two-day event will feature a Harvest Bowl dinner and awards program on November 14 at the Red River Valley Fair Association in West Fargo. The celebration will conclude with the Harvest Bowl football game between NDSU and Northern Iowa on November 15.
Through this long-standing program, NDSU continues to celebrate the unity of athletics and agriculture — two pillars that shape the state’s identity and inspire the next generation of leaders.
