- Approved minutes from last meeting in Portland, OR, October 2011 - Throughout our discussion, the group felt it was important to identify potential members from states that have not been represented in recent years, or the current S1050 members role has changed/member has retired/near retirement. - Alabama (Deacue Fields) - Arkansas - Arizona State (Tim Richards) - Illinois (Brenna Ellison) - Maine (Mario Teisl) - Michigan - Mississippi - Missouri (Joe Parcell) - Texas A&M (Marco Palma) - Beth Burhan - Katherine Boyce Current S1050 members are encouraged to contact these and other potential members. Before you do, please email Kynda and Kathy so that they can keep track of recruiting efforts and prevent several members from contacting the same candidate. If you would like information to share with these potential participants, here are some resources: - S-1050 statement of issues and justification and related information: http://nimss.umd.edu/homepages/outline.cfm?trackID=11416 - Examples of collaboration - Ethnic Food Markets  Session III (page 7). Three S-1050 members presented results pertaining to ethnic food research projects. - A few members of the group were interested in learning how much support S-1050 members receive from their universities to attend the annual meeting. This information could be helpful to current members who want to approach their departments/colleges and argue for an increase in funding. This information also provides potential members with an idea of how much funding they might be awarded that will help defray the cost of travel. The table below only includes information for members who attended the meeting. We ask that all members provide this information so that we can be as informed as possible about what type/amount of support S-1050 members are receiving: Jennifer Dennis: No fixed maximum; submits a budget and is fully reimbursed. Jim Epperson: No set amount; is provided with funds to cover travel and two days of per diem. Ramu Govindasamy: $5,000; funds support one trip and he can use the rest at his discretion. Jill McCluskey: $1,100; amount does not vary based on meeting location. She is responsible for coving costs that exceed this amount. Kathy Kelley: No fixed maximum; submits a budget and is fully reimbursed. Dave Lamie: $500; he is allowed to bank the amount but can only use the funds for travel to meetings. Dawn Thilmany: $1,000; must use the funds otherwise they are returned to the university. Once, when she was not able to attend, she was able to send a graduates student to a meeting in her place. Tim Woods: No fixed maximum; submits a budget and is fully reimbursed. Kynda Curtis; No set amount; Is provided with funds to cover travel and two days of per diem.

Accomplishments

Members were asked to indicate what collaborative activities (special issues, research proposals, etc.) they have an interest in participating. Jennifer Dennis: Grant proposals focusing on farm to school and economic impact and small and mid-sized farm economic impact. Jim Epperson: Jim is retiring and this was his last meeting. Ramu Govindasamy: Anything on agritourism and direct marketing Jill McCluskey: Special issue based on sensory research. Brad Rickard is the new chair for the AAEA-FAMPS Track Session. This might be a potential outlet for presenting research. Kathy Kelley: Special issue on wine marketing, agritourism, and direct marketing Dave Lamie: Since several states are involved in Market Maker, and there is a Market Maker research group, perhaps there is an opportunity to use this. Next year there will be a Market Maker meeting in Chicago and there is a research group  how are we going to allow people to use the data? One time meeting but not sure how to carry on with this. Dawn Thilmany: Perhaps there is an opportunity for our group to work together on a SCRI proposal where the main focus is economics rather than production research. Tim Woods: Special issue (potential linkage with the WERA-72 group/meeting) based on some themes: sampling, organic issues, and special challenges of marketing. - Potential publications/special issue outlets - Dawn is willing to be the lead for a Choices special issue. Please contact her if you are interested in participating/to suggest potential topics. - Jill McCluskey is willing to work with others to submit works to AAEA. - Applied Economics Perspectives and Policy could be an outlet for a food choices and sensory special issue. They would like three articles framed. - The group has submitted special issues to the Journal of Ag. Business. - It was suggested that the European Review of Ag. Econ. could be an outlet for GIs work. - Potential speaking opportunities - This group has presented sessions at FDRS, AAEA, and WERA. - The National Grocers Association meets in Las Vegas in February. Our group has never approached this association before, but Wes Harrison may be the linkage between FDRS and this association. - It was mentioned that there is a north east regional beverage conference and that Brad Rickard is involved. It might be possible to present and then a special issue of Ag. Economics and Review could be developed. - The deadline to submit proposals for a FAMPS track session is December 7th. Potential topics: - Leverage with other groups, such as CNET. Community economics/rural economic development - Economic/tourism/infrastructure angle - Wine Marketing - Perhaps Dave and Jennifer (who is the program chair for the 2013 FDRS meeting) could organize a section pertaining to Market Maker. Next years meeting will be held in Chicago and Market Maker participants will meet at the same time. - Other topics that could serve as the basis for collaboration (issues that several members are focusing on) - Rural development/economic impact - GIs - Consumer behaviors - Farm to school - Multi-state efforts since 2011 - Ethnic marketing session at the 2012 FDRS meeting (Ramu Govindasamy, Kathy Kelley, and Jill McCluskey) - FSMIP proposal funded: Developing Wine Marketing Strategies For the Mid-Atlantic Region (Ramu Govindasamy, Jeff Hyde, Kathy Kelley, and Brad Rickard) - State reports: Jennifer Dennis: i. Conducting boot camp about the state for farmers market vendors. Also looking at the economic impact of farmers markets. ii. Wrote four proposals pertaining to farm to school initiatives. The work is to help school directors and create networking opportunities with the department of education and department of health and to spur more proposals. Jim Epperson: i. Working on labor issues with Greg Fonsah and Cesar Escalante. ii. Either Charlie Huang or Greg Fonsah could take Jim's place on S-1050 when he retires (this was his last meeting). iii. Another focus is consumer demand for produce and meats. Data is coming from the USDA ERS and Charlie Huang is involved. iv. He has a student who is working on investigating excess supply/excessive demand for apples in eight CAFTA-DR countries. Ramu Govindasamy: i. Works with Kathy Kelley on several projects including a FSMIP project on agritourism and direct marketing and a four year SCRI project with 1.5 years of funding remaining. The project involves consumer and intermediary surveys and, more recently, production trials in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Florida to determine feasibility. ii. A couple of Masters students projects have resulted from the FSMIP grant pertaining to direct marketing and agritourism. iii. Another SCRI project that he is involved in focuses on basil wilt. This is a $1.8 million project and Ramu is looking at cost of treatment. iv. He is also involved in a Mission USA (100% cost sharing from industry) project in Zambia. The focus is fruit and vegetable production and investigating high yielding varieties, postharvest research, and grade/packing to local supermarkets. Kathy Kelley: i. Conducting wine marketing research and has submitted papers for publication. A FSMIP proposal that involves Jeff Hyde, Brad Rickard, and Ramu Govindasamy, and a researcher from New York University was funded. The focus is to learn what promotional materials/strategies appeal to consumers in the mid-Atlantic. ii. Continuing research on consumer demand for high tunnel berries and value-added products. iii. Involved in a multi-state team (Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Iowa) looking at farm to school issues. iv. Received state block grant funding to investigate consumer demand for peaches. Jill McCluskey: i. Completed a sabbatical at Cornell in the fall semester of 2012. Her focus was to learn about behavioral economics and how to set up a lab. She worked with Brad Rickard on research pertaining to a wine SCRI project with a focus on establishing reputations for new wine regions. Wine regions used in the research: VA, OR, and CA (newest to established reputation). These regions were linked with similar wine regions in France to determine which U.S. wine region would benefit the most from this effort. Linkage was more important for more experienced wine drinkers. ii. GIS data with CA and WA wines and the value of a good neighbor. All the wineries were listed in Wine Spectator. More spatially related in terms of price than blind tasting scores. iii. Apples. This project is focusing on Uzbekistan and using apples as a functional food and coating them with a compound to enhance the apples nutritional levels. iv. New project  managing club varieties in apples. How can the growers get the most for them? v. Lead on SCRI proposal with Kathy Durham (Oregon) to look at raspberries from breeders to consumers, and to help breeders understand what characteristics they should focus on to meet consumer demand. vi. Soda evaluation study - cane vs. corn syrup and the regional influence. Dave Lamie: i. Rural develop economist who is now at Clemson. This was Daves first S-1050 meeting. ii. In the past he has looked at knowledge economy and broadband access for economic growth. iii. He is involved in Market Maker as part of his extension program and chairs a committee on evaluating the program. iv. If someone wanted to be involved in electronic platforms that connect producer to consumers on a research level, please contact Dave. One question revolves around the number of these systems that are being built and whether they will be sustainable. v. Involved in market ready programs. Possible extension outlet for work that this group does. vi. Involved in project with Beth Burhan that focuses on geographic indication systems (similar to what exists in Europe). Dawn Thilmany: i. Dawn and Marco Costanigro are conducting a Meta analysis of GI studies. A student focused on dairy and did a corporate sense of responsibility  animal welfare study. ii. Organic/local trade off. Direction to equilibrium displacement model. Folks switch to local distribution are winners. iii. Will be submitting a paper, conducted with apples, pertaining to carbon foot print. iv. Works with Market Maker, specifically, how many hits, when users log-on to the system. Colorados site gets 100,000 hits a month. Perhaps a topic for a FSMIP proposal v. Working on a farm to school project. vi. Food insecurity community project. Food banks are pressured to buy more fresh produce, and farmers approach food banks after all other markets are exhausted. Perhaps is a certified kitchen is available that food banks could take free produce that cannot be sold elsewhere and create value-added products. vii. Also involved in wine research. Ruby Ward (reporting on Kyndas behalf): i. Ruby has a large extension appointment and focuses on value- added finance issues. ii. She reported the following for Kynda: 1. Finishing up papers on farmers markets with graduate students. 2. Looking at CSA participation on habits and food preparation and allowing food stamp spending and using the funds to pay for CSA memberships. 3. Developing specialty vegetable enterprise budget fact sheets. Tim Woods: i. Local wine industry research. He just finished data collection in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee. It is an intercept survey and the focus is to determine expenditures and factors driving consumers to visit wineries, awareness, and perception of local wine. ii. Another risk management project looks at wine contracting and educating vineyards and wineries about this issue. iii. Farm market/direct marketing FSMIP project. This project has produced a very large data set of farm market visitors and investigates experiences and impact on sampling on initial and future purchases. Fairly large sample, 3,600 participants, and pretty detailed sub-segments within demographics group. If you would like to learn more about this project please contract Tim. He has found that there is not too much state-to-state differences, but rural vs. urban and families with kids and without. There are concerns about allergens, uncertain materials, preparation, and other barriers. Some vendors may be reluctant to do sampling. Among the questions these participants responded, they were asked to describe the best sampling experience they ever had. iv. Recently received FSMIP funding to work with Kentucky blueberries producers and focus on farm to school programs. Among what is being investigated: sensory studies with kids and interest in blueberry products. v. AMS  national survey of multi-farm CSAs with the intent to look at the dynamics and evaluation of the business model. Intensive case study approach on how they have evolved and focusing on issue of scale  local products to local markets, overcome scale, distribution, and seasonality issues. Tim might be contacting S-1050 members and asked for list of potential multi-farm CSA participants. vi. Multi state research project that is focusing on wine and farm market sampling. Currently, eight states are involved including: Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Kentucky. He may be contacting S-1050 members to get them involved. vii. Nutritionist wiliness to pay study. Researchers provided for local tomatoes and strawberries and discussed nutritional benefits for local produced varieties. - Tim recognized Jim's years of membership and involvement in the group and that he will be missed at future meetings. - Tim motioned for the meeting to be adjourned and Dawn seconded the motion.
