Green Bay, Wisconsin — The Dairy Business Association will announce the winner of their 2010 DBA Environmental Excellence Award during World Dairy Expo.

Said honoree has also demonstrated their desire to share such improvements and strategies with others.

“DBA knows that Wisconsin farmers work hard to implement practices to ensure the safety of the environment, their communities and their animals every day. I commend all of the applicants for their innovative solutions to improving the environment,” said DBA Executive Director Laurie Fischer.
