Peachtree Corners, Georgia, USA – Each year, the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI) offers its Science Award to recognize and promote distinguished contributions by agronomic scientists.
The Award is intended to recognize outstanding achievements in research, extension, or education; with focus on efficient management of plant nutrients and their positive interaction in fully integrated crop production that enhances yield potential. Such systems improve net returns, lower unit costs of production, and maintain or improve environmental quality.
The IPNI Science Award requires that a nomination form (no self-nominations) and supporting letters be received at IPNI Headquarters by September 30, 2016. Announcement of Award recipient will be in December, 2016. An individual Award nomination package will be retained and considered for two additional years (for a total of three years). There is no need to resubmit a nomination during that three-year period unless a significant change has occurred.
All details and nomination forms for the 2016 IPNI Science Award are available from the IPNI
