Achieving sustainability has never been more important than it is today. The effects of climate change are evident across the globe, hitting especially close to home for fresh produce growers. Drought, heat waves and wildfires wreak havoc on some of the world’s top growing regions, depleting our increasingly scarce supply of fresh water in some areas, while others are flooded by record-breaking storms. Meanwhile, the ongoing pandemic has brought to the forefront the importance of protecting our most precious resource – our people.
Add to these the equally difficult challenge of staying informed and up-to-date on ever-evolving regulations, technology, and other demands, and it’s easy to understand why fresh produce professionals are seeking educational conferences that are convenient and singularly focused.
