“We have had an excellent array of papers submitted, the research topics ranging from new approaches to crop production and crop protection (pests, diseases and weeds) to crop genetics/genomics and breeding focused on a number of different traits. There will also be consideration of consumer preferences and impacts on their health. We look forward to presenting these speakers and posters to you at the Symposium”.
