Nominate Your Cotton Consultant for the 2019 CCOY Award

Cotton consultants spend long hours in the field in an effort to make their farmer clients more profitable. If you would like your consultant to be recognized, nominate him or her for the prestigious 2019 Cotton Consultant of the Year award. Click here to access the 2019 nomination form. The deadline for nominations is July 31.

This annual award is co-sponsored by Syngenta and Cotton Farming magazine and offers an opportunity to recognize a consultant who has made great contributions to the cotton industry through outstanding customer relations, leadership and innovation. The nominees are voted on by the past Cotton Consultant of the Year recipients so the award is even more special as the new recipient is chosen by his or her peers.

The Cotton Consultant of the Year award has a rich history that began in 1981 when Bob Stanford of Flagstaff, Arizona, was honored. Last year, Mark Scott of Slaton, Texas, was named the 2018 Cotton Consultant of the Year. Past winners from Louisiana include Dr. Grady Coburn, Ray Young (who also received the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008), Roger Carter, Harold Lambert and Tim White.

The 2019 CCOY recipient will be named at a special celebration Friday, February 28, 2020, at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. The winning consultant and nominator will receive a two night hotel stay and transportation to Memphis for the event. Additionally, the recipient will be featured in a four-page salute in the February 2020 issue of Cotton Farming.
