Organic in the tropics: Upcoming conference calls for more research
ICROFS supports the upcoming conference in Indonesia, August 20-24, 2017. The event will take place in Universitas Gadjah Mada in Yogyakarta. This university is the oldest in Indonesia. Paper abstracts should be submitted by March 15, 2017.
This conference will bring together researchers in organic agriculture in the tropics for discussing scientific developments in this intriguing domain. Attention will also be given to more practical issues such as marketing and certification. Interaction between scientists and farmers/practitioners/NGOs/government bodies should be stimulated in order to finetune research priorities and identify major bottlenecks for further development of organic agriculture in the tropics.
