Outstanding Associate Editor Award

The high quality of ASABE peer-reviewed journal publications could not be maintained without the dedicated service of Associate Editors (AE) who spend many hours working closely with the reviewers, authors, and editors during the peer-review process. The number of possible nominees is approximately equal to 5% of the number of journal articles published in the same year. Nominees allowed for each community are proportional to the number of articles published by each community. Community editors nominate AE and a limited number of award winners are chosen from those nominations.
