CBCIA Accepting Applications for Seedstock Producer of the Year
CBCIA Junior Producer Award
This contest is designed to showcase what young producers are doing at home, and their future goals in the beef industry.
CBCIA Outstanding Seedstock and Commercial Producer of the Year Awards
Each year, CBCIA accepts applications for the CBCIA Outstanding Seedstock and Commercial Producer of the Year Awards. These awards recognize progressive beef cattle breeders who use practical, scientifically accepted selection and management methods and integrate them into successful ranching operations. Examples include, but are not limited to, genetic and breeding strategies for traits of economic importance, feed development and utilization, nutritional management and marketing based on objective measurement of performance. Awardees will be honored at appropriate CCA and CBCIA sponsored events and are eligible to be nominated (by CBCIA) for the National Beef Improvement Federation (BIF) awards
The award rotates between honoring a producer or commercial producer each year. For 2024, CBCIA will honor an outstanding seedstock operation. Click here to download the application. Applications are due Oct. 1.
