The technical program of the 4th National Stone Fruit Congress is already available on the official website of the event www.frutadehueso.com. Some thirty expert speakers will participate in this biennial congress, to be held on 25 and 26 November, which will serve to present the latest developments in plant health and postharvest; fertigation and precision agriculture; varietal innovation and marketing.
The Congress, to be held in a hybrid format, will include a morning session in person at the Auditorio Víctor Villegas in Murcia, with technical presentations taking place from 9am to 2pm and a coffee break for networking.

On Friday, November 26, the technical presentations will continue exclusively online. These will be carried out through the audiovisual content and agricultural training platform Agromunity, leader in Spanish-speaking countries, with more than 10,000 registered professionals from Spain and Latin America.
