The Program is Packed for The Almond Conference

10/2/2017

The event you won’t want to miss is right around the corner. The program is full and the presenters are ready — now all we need is you! Join your peers in December for the 45th annual Almond Conference, where you’ll hear from more than 60 industry experts on topics ranging from almond biomass to aerial almond mapping, from CASP participation to the organic movement.
 
Among those speaking at The Almond Conference are Daniel Lubetsky, founder and CEO of KIND Snacks, and Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief of Forbes magazine and two-time presidential candidate. You’ll also hear from representatives at University California, Davis, United States Department of Agriculture, Blue Diamond and more. With more than 45 learning sessions from which to choose and upward of 270 exhibitors to visit, The Almond Conference has something for everyone.
 
The Almond Conference offers the perfect opportunity to catch up on all that’s happened in the 2016/2017 crop year. At Almond Board of California, for instance, researchers have been busy exploring key topics in the industry, including pest management and pollination, groundwater recharge and FSMA, and they will present their key findings at the conference.
 
To wrap up the conference in style, the Gala Dinner, held Thursday evening, will feature special entertainment from “The Futurist” Adam Trent. Trent, who is returning to his solo roots after his membership in a best-selling magic show on Broadway, will wow attendees with his skill, personality and humor.
 
The Almond Conference will take place December 5-7, 2017, at the Sacramento Convention Center. It is complimentary to attend, and online registration is open until November 29 at www.almondconference.com.
