CASMGS 2003 Conference

Carbon Measurement and Monitoring Forum

 

The CASMGS (Consortium for Agricultural Soils Mitigation of Greenhouse Gases) 2003 Carbon Measurement and Monitoring Forum was a great success. A big thank you to all the speakers and all those who attended! A group of more than 125 scientists, policymakers, energy company representatives, producers and producer organization representatives, and others from 25 states and 3 foreign countries attended.
