Call for Abstracts

The Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture and Natural Resources invites researchers and statisticians from academia, industry, and government to submit an abstract for consideration as an oral or poster presentation on various topics related to statistics in agriculture and natural resources. Presentations will focus on an array of topics, and our goal is to develop a fully-rounded agenda that ensures a diverse representation. This conference will provide a framework for statisticians and scientists in both disciplines to share technical information that will promote the transfer of knowledge to a broad audience.


Please Note

  • All authors are limited to a maximum of two talks to allow as many people as possible to give an oral presentation.
  • Authors may present on multiple posters.
  • All oral presenters, if accepted, will be asked to prepare a 20-minute talk which includes a 2-5 minute Q&A session.
  • Posters will be on exhibit throughout the conference. Attendees will be able to view abstracts in the program book.
  • Please proof abstracts carefully and obtain applicable approvals prior to submission.

If not registered by April 2, 2022, the abstract will not be published and will be removed from the program.
