It is that time of year again when we seek nominations for the next Florida Grower Citrus Achievement Award winner. Since 2000, the honor has grown into the gold standard of industry recognition for those who have made and continue to make a significant impact within and even beyond the Florida citrus community.
The Citrus Achievement Award is presented to a grower, allied member, legislator, researcher or anyone else who stands out through leadership, innovation, dedication and active participation on behalf of the state’s signature crop.
Candidates must meet the following requirements for consideration:
- Be actively involved with citrus production as a grower, packer/processor, marketer, supplier, researcher or industry advocate
- Have had a measurable impact on the citrus industry within the last three years
- Be actively involved in one or more citrus industry organization or association
- Have demonstrated commitment to the future of the Florida citrus industry, notwithstanding personal gain
- Be a leader who is recognized and respected by industry peers.
