Virtual presentations

Virtual abstract submissions

All scientific abstracts are accepted! Gain presentation experience and professional recognition among premier agronomic, crop, soil, and related science professionals. Your efforts will expand your CV/vita, disseminate information for all to succeed, and foster lasting collaborations with your peers.

Concerned you might not have enough detail for an abstract before the submission deadline?

• Abstracts at this point are “holding slots” that reserve your spot in the desired session.
• The Program Planning Committee will require a title, full payment, and just enough abstract content to ensure your submissions are placed in proper sessions.
• Research details and more solid content can be added through November 4.
• Please note that in-person submissions cannot be transferred to virtual sessions.
