Nuffield International inspires people to make a difference in agriculture.


Since 1947, Nuffield has invested in agriculture’s most critical resource: its people. We are a global network of farmers and agri-professionals building the leaders who will shape the future of food and farming.

We do this by developing individuals — giving Nuffield Scholars the confidence, knowledge and network to lead at home and on the world stage.



Aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals

Our scholars’ work advances the UN Sustainable Development Goals — read how.



Invest in the future of agriculture

Our investors make every scholarship possible. More than 100 organisations support scholars in 18 countries each year, backing the research, travel and leadership development that strengthens agriculture worldwide. In return, investors connect with a global network of emerging leaders and the insight they generate.
