This scholarship was created by Dr. Karl C. Ivarson through a gift to the Agricultural Institute of Canada Foundation, which eventually became the Canadian Foundation for Food and Agricultural Education. In 2024, the administration of this scholarship passed to the CSSS. Dr. Ivarson’s wish was to provide financial support to a student(s) entering second or subsequent year of graduate studies in soil science (in areas of agriculture, agro-ecology, resource management, environment, geology, or other related disciplines) at a recognized Canadian university.
