Annual Meeting Awards Ceremony
Each year at the SRM Annual Meeting, we take time to recognize the individuals and students whose work represents the very best of the Society for Range Management.
These awards reflect the strength of our profession — from groundbreaking research and on-the-ground stewardship to student achievement and lifelong service to rangelands. The individuals recognized this year demonstrate the dedication, innovation, and leadership that continue to move rangeland science and management forward.
A special highlight of the Annual Meeting is our Student Awards and competitions, where student range clubs from across the North America prepare and study throughout the year to test their knowledge and skills. These competitions represent one of SRM’s strongest traditions and play a critical role in developing the next generation of rangeland professionals.
