 I'm Darren Haginson, I'm the work site manager of the USDA ARS facility in East Grand Forks. Wanted just to take a few moments today to talk about some of our ongoing field trials for the season as well as highlight some of our up-going storage trials. So first of all we have our evaluations of some of the promising new breeding clones conducted in the Laramore Research Pivot. This year we have roughly 80 clones, about half each of the chip processing as well as the fry processing. These represent nine public university programs and again similar to past years we will be harvesting this material and looking at the processing quality throughout storage in East Grand Forks. One other trial I wanted just to highlight is our continued participation in the snack, the Potatoes USA snack trial that's up in the grower cooperator field in Hoople, North Dakota. This year we're quantifying nine or we're testing nine public varieties in comparison to the yield of Snowden and Lamoka Checks. Again we'll be storing those materials at our facility and looking at the processing quality throughout storage. With our continued participation in some other grower directed research trials we work closely with Dr. Andy Robinson on a bruising trial with some of his fresh and yellow trials. We're also working on a dormancy study with both Andy's group as well as evaluating some of the University of Minnesota, some of her new materials are Dr. Laura Shannon's group. So stay tuned on that. I sure will have some publications in upcoming Valley Potato Grower magazines. Lastly I would like to introduce a new addition to the research family in the USDA, Dr. Muneve Doge Masi. She's a research physiologist. She's stationed in Fargo, North Dakota. She's going to be a physiologist that we're excited about doing some collaboration with. Again she just started in the last couple of months, so I wanted to take the time to introduce her to the MPPGA as well as the grower stakeholders. So with that Muneve, do you have a few introductory comments you can share? Yes. Hi everybody. I'm happy to be part of Team Potato and I look forward to meeting and working with all of you. As they mentioned I joined a couple of months ago to USDA ARS as a physiologist and I'm in the process of establishing my lab and my immediate objectives will include tuber dormancy, tuber sprouting, sequinset and wound healing. Again it's nice to meeting you all and I look forward to working with all of you. Thank you.
