Great year for irrigation research, not so much for dryland and fields with limited irrigation capacity.

Beginning to suspect @WesleyMPorter may have a treatment effect / yield difference between these 2 #corn plots.

@LucasAHaag @Ogallala_water @true_bug @NE_DrylandCrops @WyoWeeds @szintri @OSU_NPK @KSUCROPS @TXPanAg @Wheat_MaryG @UNLIrrigation @UNL_TAPS We use OneDrive the most, tried task softwares and have a team group chat tried electronic data collection but a tablet lasts about 15 min in S GA heat before shut down I've enjoyed seeing some solutions. If I could only train the gnats how to be useful I'd be good

@Ogallala_water @true_bug @NE_DrylandCrops @WyoWeeds @WesleyMPorter @szintri @OSU_NPK @KSUCROPS @TXPanAg @Wheat_MaryG @UNLIrrigation @UNL_TAPS I also had Smartsheet come in as a recommendation via DM, will look at it, never heard of it. We had an online faculty discussion today and I posed my question, several mentioned that I should investigate Microsoft Teams more, we've been using it some in the KSU system already

Tagging folks who run successful programs with multiple people running around. I run with a mix of myself, some part-time help, and hopefully soon a full time tech. I'm on the road a lot. What are you using for tools to assign tasks, keep track of completions, set/change priority

Corn Irrigation Scheduling study at @StriplingPark was harvested today. Big treatment differences ranging from 30 bu/ac dryland to 250 bu/ac in irrigation treatments. We'll see how all the treatments come out after analysis.

Congratulations to @UGA_AgEngineer for successfully defending and passing his Dissertation defense today even if it were in an unconventional way. Dr. Virk coming soon!
