Business meeting:
-Larry asked that all reports of publications, presentations, and students be sent to him
-State reports need to be sent to Clint Shock for posting on the web
-Discussion of the project revision
-Possible title: Increased efficiency and sustainability of natural resource systems through microirrigation
Objectives: Volunteers for each objective
1. Management strategies: Larry Schwankl
2. Design and components: Gary Clark
3. Decision criteria: Reasons in addition to the economics. Most of us can contribute something. Freddie Lamm.
Many of the problems are hardware related according to Freddie Lamm.
Sal, much of the adoption is related to water availability.
4. Educational activities. Clint Shock
-Everyone should send their information on what they intend to do by January 15, 2003 to the objective coordinators
-Once the objectives are done, then we will work over the rest of the project and literature review
-Who is going to take overall responsibility? Larry, Freddie and Clint volunteered to do it
-State Reports from: Sal Locascio-Florida, Dorota Haman-Florida, Larry Parsons-Florida, Manuel Palada-Virgin Islands, Clinton Shock-Oregon, Gary Clark-Kansas, Freddie Lamm-Kansas, Dana Porter-Texas
