Do you know a colleague, friend or agri-retailer who should be recognized for their hard work and dedication in the ag industry?

Then nominate them for one of our four CAAR’s Choice Awards today!

The upcoming 2017 CAAR Conference will mark the 10th annual CAAR’s Choice Awards. These prestigious awards are presented annually at the conference and recognize and celebrate the hard work, dedication and contributions of CAAR members throughout the ag industry.

The winners of the awards receive a free trip to the conference, which includes travel and accommodations at the beautiful Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. Winners will also receive a complimentary pass to the conference, a prize valued at $1,000 and coverage throughout the Communicator, the CAAR Network, caar.org, produceandprotect.com, CAAR’s social media channels and a local media release.

The CAAR’s Choice Awards are only open to CAAR members, giving them a leg-up and distinctive competitive edge in today’s evolving ag industry.

Applications are now open for the following categories:

Agronomist of the Year: The Agronomist of the Year award recognizes a CAAR member agronomist who consistently exceeds expectations through dedication to their field and their agronomic knowledge.

Retailer of the Year: Established in 2008, the Retailer of the Year award is presented to one CAAR member location that went above and beyond to serve its customers.

Retailer Hall of Fame: The Retailer Hall of Fame award highlights an individual from one member location who has consistently demonstrated exceptional performance and dedication over time.

4R Nutrient Stewardship Agri-Retailer Award: Introduced in 2013, the 4R Nutrient Stewardship Award honours a team member at one member location that has shown leadership in the adoption of 4R Nutrient Stewardship into their business practices.
