Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Testing this winter is required to show system effectiveness which allows product design, production planning and system sales for the 2008-2009 growing season in North America. Without a proof of principle demonstration this winter, there is no strong marketing feature for sales next year. The system was conceived, designed and US patent applied within the last 6 months. The need for a field test was realized in the last month.
