The World Dairy Expo Dairy Industry Person of the Year is Steve Larson (pictured on the left talking Orion Samuelson). Steve is the managing editor of Hoard’s Dairyman Magazine. He’s been in that position since 1998 and started with the publication in 1969.
Steve says that two of his predecessors have received the award and he feels very honored to join their ranks. He says that Hoard’s has long been a supporter of World Dairy Expo and he likes to say that this is a time “when the world comes to see us.” Steve thinks that although the dairy producers are becoming more business like it’s still a great way of life. He’s looking forward to the future and says that you can now search past articles of Hoard’s online.
