Why to be part of the XI Congress of Silvopastoral Sustems and I Congress of the Global Network on Silvopastoal Systems? |
 |
| The XI International Congress of Silvopastoral Systems and I Congress of the Global Network on Silvopastoral Systems, XI CISSP – I CRGSSP, will allow you to be part of the discoveries, innovations and practices that are revolutionizing efficient and sustainable food production.
This important event, celebrating its 22nd anniversary, honours the work carried out by innovative producers from Latin America and the Caribbean in conjunction with the scientific community, and will now also include a group of researchers from around the world. The Congress seeks to promote and facilitate the exchange of experiences and innovations between producers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and all those interested in the environmental, productive, animal welfare, and health related food topics, all of which are relevant aspects for a society that is increasingly demanding access to high quality products of animal origin, produced in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner…more information |
