ASABE's Technical Session Presenter Policy
As a registered and scheduled presenter in a technical session at the meeting, you are confirmed to present your talk.  If you do not present at the time and location of the session, your presentation will be marked as a NO-SHOW.  This is for all technical sessions, both oral and poster sessions.  Being marked as a NO-SHOW for your presentation will increase the likelihood that any future presentations you submit will not be accepted by the session organizers.  Providing a well-organized session on topics relevant to our membership is a priority for the quality of meetings that are expected from ASABE.
