"CropFlix was the best format on web meetings that I participated in this year. I prefer in person instruction, but having additional content and being able to access it at my convenience were really nice."

"The format used for this year’s CropFlix worked well. The opportunity to attend when convenient, and the short, to-the-point presentations were greatly appreciated."
