"Together with CSO Italy, we worked hard to also organize conventions that could provide useful answers to the main problems that affect the sector and we think we have reached our goal. We started off on Thursday with an analysis on Australian pear cultivation to find solutions that could be applicable to our territory as well. We continued with a focus on the fight against brown spot, during which we analyzed the different tests carried out by Universities and research institutes down to the defense strategy Regione Emilia-Romagna has put in place for next year," explains Albano Bergami, vice-president of OI Pera.
