As a reminder, the Dairy Cattle Reproduction Council (DCRC) Reproduction Award Program nominations are due May 2, and must be completed online. The awards honor dairy producers and their operations for accomplishing reproductive efficiency with well-implemented management procedures.


Producers must be nominated by professionals who serve the dairy industry, such as veterinarians, genetic and pharmaceutical company representatives, DHIA field personnel or extension specialists.

Applications will be reviewed by a panel of judges and the top nominees will be asked to provide additional information about their operation. This information will allow judges to select Platinum, Gold, Silver and Honorable Mention winners, who will be honored at the 2011 DCRC annual meeting in Kansas City, Missouri.
