The nomination period deadline for the 2022 U.S. Dairy Sustainability Awards was extended to March 4. The farmer-founded Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy, which unites the industry through a shared social responsibility platform, said it launched the awards to honor exceptional farms, businesses and partnerships for their socially responsible, economically viable and environmentally sound practices and technologies that have a broad and positive impact.
“Sustainability Award winners epitomize the best of dairy sustainability and ingenuity, providing useful case studies for the dairy community as it moves forward to meet industrywide commitments, including dairy’s 2050 Environmental Stewardship goals,” said Barbara O’Brien, president and CEO of Rosemont, Ill.-based Dairy Management Inc. and the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy. “We’re excited to see what innovations rise to the top with this year’s nominations.”
