John Lory proposed the establishment of a web site to share P-based extension publications among the states. The web site would list titles, authors, and sources for the different publications. A person from each participating state would be responsible for uploading the information to the site. The group supported the idea. Scott Morale of the Potash and Phosphate Institute indicated that PPI would be willing to list their P-based publications on the site. John Lory will contact group members in each state to identify persons that could take responsibility for this task.
Jerry Lemunyon indicated that animals scientists have developed Fact Sheets that describe how feeds can affect the P content of manures.
The group discussed the need to revise the protocol for the National P Project. Tommy Daniel, Peter Kleinman, and Phillip Moore agreed to revise the protocol and make it available to group members. Brad Joern and Miguel Cabrera will nominate group members to serve on the RTAGs for each region. Group members were encouraged to provide comments on EPA proposals being released this summer and in December of this year. Comments will be summarized by Brad Joern, Phillip Moore, and Miguel Cabrera, and will be submitted to EPA.
Wes Jarrell, Brad Joern, Dory Franklin, and Jeff Novak will provide leadership on a paper related to the land-water continuum and the landscape approach to P issues.
Frank Coale, Phillip Moore, and Miguel Cabrera will collect data on P solubility of animal manures to be made available to group members.
Michael Ouart, administrative advisor to SERA-IEG 17 expressed the need for the group to establish criteria for membership in the group. These criteria should be presented to the directors together with the minutes for the meting. He also expressed that Raymond Knight is the representative of IEG groups in CSREES and that he could be contacted to explore the possibility of making this group a national one.
The American Society of Agronomy is studying the possibility of publishing a revised edition of the P monograph. Tommy Daniel reported that members of SERA-IEG 17 are in the feasibility committee.
The group voted unanimously to accept an invitation from Pennsylvania to host the 2001 meeting of SERA-IEG 17. The meeting will be scheduled in July, trying to avoid conflicts with meetings in Animal Science, Poultry Science, Limnology and Ecology.
Doug Beegle of Pennsylvania was nominated as the incoming chair for SERA-IEG 17. The group voted unanimously to appoint him chair for 2001-2002.
