Thanks Neal, please keep us posted. We are a little all-over-the-place in Ag genomics right now But drought resistance is high on the list, as is the rhizosphere. There's also a microbiome initiative headed by the Vet College that was recently funded, although I am not involved much yet.

It looks like the Incubator is the right place to set things up after all. I've a couple of minor TODOs to clear up, then I'll pass it that way. Those such as Aleksandra P and Peter who are interested in using or coordinating: from our perspective now, the major missing element is that we target nonirrigated ag areas. Not sure if we want another lesson or simply another version to incorporate irrigation, which pushes the zone of applicability much further west in the US at least. We also don't have anything for animal husbandry but would like to consider it. We have a planning meeting this week, then I can follow up with you. Paula, please feel free to add it to your excellent resource list.

You went even further than most Incubator materials and formatted it using the Carpentries lesson template - which is great. Putting it in the Incubator makes it more discoverable by the others looking for similar materials as this is the first place (or one of the first places) they will come to look at.

In my estimation, your lesson is well within the scope of the Carpentries Incubator.

Candidates include housing it with the University Extension office or trying to find another ag-focused group in the Midwest to coordinate. Leaving it floating (i.e., we developers and maintainers are the only contacts) seems undesirable if we want to support and encourage others using the material. Finally, it's not really Carpentries Incubator material (in my estimation) because the audience is so different from the common academic–research groups we target here.
