2024 PCA Awards Nomination Application

PCA is proud to recognize cattlemen and women who have made a positive impact upon the sustainability of the Pennsylvania Beef Industry through their significant contributions, and through use and implementation of programs such as animal performance evaluations, best management practices, and Beef Quality Assurance to ensure the advancement and continued success of the Pennsylvania Beef Industry.

The purpose of these awards is to celebrate the efforts and hard work of the Pennsylvania cattle feeding industry and recognize cattle feeders who have devoted their careers to preserving and improving production practices.

Note: Nominees do not need to be members. On top of winning the award recognition, winners will receive 1 (one) year free PCA membership.


 Any individual, group, or organization is eligible to nominate one individual/farm who raises or feeds cattle. Individuals and families may not nominate themselves. However, we expect nominees will be involved in the preparation of the application in order to accurately describe the operation’s sustainable practices.


The deadline to submit a nomination is January 15, 2024.
