Successful International Fresh-cut Conference Enjoyed by All

We are pleased to announce the Postharvest Technology Center’s first successful organization and hosting of an international hoticultural conference. The technical program, gala dinner, and optional field tour were well received. Aris Adams of Dole Fresh Vegetables commented, “It’s a great place to network and meet researchers in the field that have a vast amount of knowledge.” And Chris Fields of Russ Davis Wholesale remarked, “It’s really the only conference you can go to that I found that applies directly to the fresh cut produce industry.” The Postharvest Center wants to sincerely thank Marita Cantwell, the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS), and all conference sponsors, exhibitors, participants, and staff for supporting such a well-attended and informative event. Keynote presentations from the conference may be downloaded as a free pdf. Link to the Program Agenda and click on the keynote presentation and scroll to the bottom of the abstract to download. Marita Cantwell is currently receiving manuscripts from presenters for conference proceedings to be published in a volume of Acta Horticulturae.
