Hi Barry, Ref your project of the last two years. Now that sounds like the correct way to go. Work with the farmers, find out what does a job for them and then give it to them in a well designerd system. How is the funding being handled? Are the farmers paying? Do you have any of your referenced in files that we could down load? I'm anxious to see how we could improve DSSAT3. By the way does this mean that the Unif of Florida is leaving DSSAT3 behind and moving on to a new system? Many thanks for your inputs on the Future. Romeo R.
