    • Next step: group provide feedback to Andres on paper he sent out on how this can be adapted for an article. Any start or ideas to send to Phil so that he can share on Thursday at Grain & Feed meeting. See page 11 in Andres' paper for CART specific content. Phil to review paper and send a note on his thoughts. Still need list of companies/people involved.

    • Tradeshow calendar on wiki
  • Conference Communications (i.e. ASABE) - Andres not present for update
  • ADAPT Application Notes - Susan has a draft template Word document to share with the group.
  • ARA press release - last week Susan was told they will get it to her about ARA endorsing ADAPT - very positive, waiting on OK from ARA. Hopefully press release goes out this week along with CART press release. Looking for a good piece of art to accompany press release with a retailer component.
