Nominations Being Accepted for Environmental Stewardship Program

Nominations are being accepted for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Environmental Stewardship Award. Established in 1991, the Environmental Stewardship Award (ESAP) annually recognizes outstanding stewardship practices and conservation achievements of cattle producers across the nation.

“Every day, cattle producers across the country are implementing stewardship practices that improve wildlife habitat and protect the environment for generations to come,” said NCBA President Mark Eisele. “This distinguished award is our opportunity to celebrate their hard work and share those efforts with fellow producers.”

Any individual, group, or organization is eligible to nominate one individual or business raising or feeding cattle. Individuals and families may not nominate themselves, although nominees should be involved in preparing the application. Along with the application, one nomination letter and three recommendation letters are required. The deadline to apply is February 17th.
