Happy to broadcast this opportunity.
The Crawford Fund is now calling for nominations for its Crawford Fund Fellowship for 2010.
The Crawford Fund Fellowship has been set up to provide further training for an agricultural scientist whose work has shown potential. This prestigious Award provides an opportunity for the successful candidate to spend a period of focussed study and training in Australia, with resulting benefits to the Awardee as well as to their country’s agriculture and to Australia.
Candidates should be below the age of 35 and from a selected group of developing countries (Bangladesh, Bhutan, Burma, Cambodia, East Timor, Fiji, Indonesia, Laos, Nepal, Niue, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Is, Tonga, Tuvalu and Kiribati, Vanuatu or Vietnam).
Applications close 12 April 2010. More details, application forms, etc etc here.
why did you have to limit the fellowship to a few developing countries?
Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, it’s not our Fellowship, we were just helping to draw attention to it. So we can’t answer. You could take it up with the Crawford Fund. I am sure they have good reasons.

Dear Prof.
I’m looking forward to have a Post-Doctor fellowship in your lab in plant pathology.
I’m holding bachelor’s degree in plant pathology from faculty of Agriculture 1995 and Master’s degree in integrated disease management from Cairo University 2002 in Egypt. I’m working in The high Technology of Disease Forecasting and Early Warning project in Agriculture Research Center in Egypt (please see my C.V.), master title “Integrated Disease Management of Downy Mildew on Cucurbits”. In this master I was used a combination of some agriculture practices, induce resistance by using chemical non-fungicides and chemical control throughout application of plant disease forecasting system of Peseudoperonospora cubensis causing cucumber downy mildew. By this work I save to farmers a lot of money and save to people healthy crops empty of the harmful effect of fungicide. Farmer can spry the effective fungicides only if the pathogen has present and weather conditions are favorable for pathogen. The same objective was applicable in Ph.D. protocol “Integrated Disease Management of powdery mildew Leveillula taurica on Tomato” throughout induce resistance by using salts like sodium and potassium carbonate and bicarbonate, using some microelements like Fe, Mn and Zn, also applied of Chitosan to reduce the losses of pathogen and chemical control throughout, application of plant disease forecasting system.
With my kind regards
