Our objectives

The Perry Foundation is a registered UK Charity with the objectives of promoting education and research connected with agriculture or food production for the benefit of the public

Most of our income is allocated to funding postgraduate PhD studentships intended to be of benefit to UK agriculture, but we also grant smaller awards for other relevant projects 

Any special conditions?

PhD projects relating to all aspects of UK agriculture including livestock, crops and horticulture will be considered

Part of the grant approval process involves an assessment of the likelihood of such projects providing benefit to UK agriculture in the short to medium term.

However great emphasis is also placed on the selection of the student and this process will always include face to face interviews carried out by Trustee Directors of the Foundation.
