UPL has announced an initiative to recognize “the food chain heroes” for their commitment to high quality, sustainable food production. This recognition will be given to farmers, crop consultants, food processors, retailers and others who make a difference throughout the food chain. Nominations are being accepted now at alliesforagricutlure.com. Winners will be announced bi-monthly. UPL will make a $1,000 donation on behalf of each winner to a local food bank in their community.
