Nominate a good steward!
Role players in the industry are invited to submit nominations for the MPO Nedbank Stewardship Awards 2020, held in association with World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF) and The Dairy Mail. If you know a dairy farmer who is the epitome of a good dairy steward, nominate them in the fourth annual stewardship awards competition.
Nominated farmers should excel in at least one of these areas:
To enter, complete the nomination form on mpo.co.za/nedbank-stewardship-awards-entry-form-2020/ and submit it to Barbara Bieldt at barbara@mpo.co.za by 30 June 2020. Nominated farmers have to complete the MPO 3P metric stewardship survey, which will be subject to a judging process to determine the three finalists who will be visited on-farm for a final assessment. Nominated farmers will receive feedback based on the MPO 3P metric stewardship survey in order to further improve their sustainability efforts. The judging panel consists of Dr Chris van Dijk (MPO), Dr Heinz Meissner (Milk SA), Sue Viljoen (WWF), and Jompie Burger (Dairy Standard Agency).
The winner and runner up will be announced at the annual MPO gala dinner to be held on 4 November 2020. Nedbank sponsors prizes to the value of R80 000 (R40 000 for the winner, R30 000 for the runner up, and R10 000 for the third place) to use on-farm to help achieve stewardship goals.
