National Student Recognition Program and to honor the unparalleled academic advising of the late Frank D. Keim, whose students and work have reached around the world. It is funded by the Frank D. Keim Fund of the Agronomic Science Foundation. The 2010 Frank D. Keim Graduate Fellowship is awarded to: Jared Crain Oklahoma University. Jared Crain received a B.S. in plant and soil science at Oklahoma State University, and is working toward an M.S. at Oklahoma State University with emphasis in soil nutrient management. As a Fulbright Scholar, Jared is conducting research to extend sensor based nitrogen management technology to developing countries. His current research is in collaboration with Oklahoma State University and the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT).

The J. Fielding Reed Scholarship is awarded to an outstanding undergraduate senior pursuing a career in soil or plant sciences. It was established in recognition of Dr. Reed's life-long commitment to advancing the knowledge of agriculture through his work in soil science and natural resources, and his passion for educating students. It is funded through the Agronomic Science Foundation. The 2010 J. Fielding Reed Scholarship is award to: Ross Bender University of Illinois. Ross Bender is a M.S. student in crop physiology at the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana. He received a B.S. from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls in crop and soil sciences. His graduate program focuses mainly on nitrogen use efficiency and products/practices that may enhance the uptake and use of nitrogen. Specifically, he is analyzing nitrification inhibitors that may prevent nitrification, potentially allowing nitrogen to remain in the soil longer until nitrogen intensive reproductive stages occur.
