We understand not everyone has the ability to travel to San Antonio this year, but that should not get in the way of furthering your career. Submit a virtual abstract to 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.
Virtual abstract submissions closed October 2.
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 13.
- Please note that in-person submissions cannot be transferred to virtual sessions.
