AAEA Fellows

Recognition as an AAEA Fellow is AAEA's most prestigious honor. The main consideration for selecting Fellows is continuous contribution to the advancement of agricultural or applied economics as defined by the Vision Statement. Achievements may be in research, teaching, extension, administration, and/or other contributions to public or private sector decision-making.

Submit a Fellows Nomination

Any AAEA member may nominate any living member for the honor of election as Fellow. You can find instructions on how to do so, including the most recent call for nominations on the Submit a Fellows Nomination page.
