Scholarships & Funding

The Andy Ritchie Fund was set up in the year 2000.

The purpose of the Scholarship Fund is to support practical research in the field of New Zealand Aquaculture. To gain better knowledge and understanding of the environment we operate in, the species farmed and any impacts associated with marine farming operations.

$5,000 is available annually.

The funding area is nationwide but preference will be given to projects that benefit Top of the South aquaculture.

It is open to all species and aquaculture products.
