Criteria

The award will be made annually at each Congress.
The paper should be innovative and make a significant contribution to Grassland Science.
The paper should preferably be central to the discipline although this is not a prerequisite provided it makes a significant contribution to Grassland Science.
The scientific procedures used in the paper must be of a high standard, given the constraints of the study in question. In this regard, potential winning papers must be “passed” by the editorial committee (to eliminate the necessity of extensive review by the adjudication committee).
Within these broad guidelines, the adjudicators are given reasonably wide leeway to choose, in their opinion, the “best scientific paper”.
