Awards winners recognized at 2021 Livestock Care Conference
Calgary, ALBERTA — Outstanding contributors to advancing farm animal care in Alberta were celebrated with Awards of Distinction at the recent Livestock Care Conference, hosted by Alberta Farm Animal Care (AFAC).
With a theme of “Are we there yet?” this leading animal care conference featured virtual speaker and workshop sessions throughout March, along with the presentation of these awards. The AFAC Awards of Distinction recognize individuals or groups who have made exceptional contributions in the field of livestock welfare, with awards in three categories: innovation, leadership and communication.
“These awards are typically one of the highlights of our annual conference and this year is no exception,” says Annemarie Pedersen, AFAC Executive Director. “Our three winners for 2021 are leading examples among many across our industry who are key drivers of farm animal care progress.”
