CALGARY, AB. — The Alberta Beef Producers (ABP) are seeking nominations for the 2021 Environmental Stewardship Award (ESA).

Committee Chair, Kolton Kasur, wants producers to help continue to celebrate Alberta producers who exhibit exemplary environmental stewardship, by nominating someone who is a leader in Alberta’s beef industry.

“This long-running award recognizes cattle producers whose natural resource stewardship practices contribute to the environment and enhance productivity and profitability on their operations.

Kasur outlines what the environmental stewardship judges will be looking for in their deliberations:

“We’re asking producers to share the outstanding management practices employed on their operations and to present a positive story about cattle production and the environment.”
