  • On January 23, 2018

ASTA is excited to once again report record-breaking attendance for its annual Vegetable & Flower Seed Conference! Kicking off this weekend in San Diego, the 57th Vegetable & Flower Seed Conference will gather more than 900 seed industry professionals from over 30 countries. This conference continues to be ASTA’s fastest growing event, offering four days of unparalleled global business networking opportunities for participants.

The educational program includes a cutting-edge general session on innovation in agricultural production techniques, such as vertical farming, new advancements in mechanization and block chain and the produce industry. Other key session topics will include organic seeds, intellectual property rights protection, phytosanitary concerns, seed treatment, legislative and legal concerns, and much more. The Home Garden Seed Association, National Garden Bureau and All-America Selections will once again co-locate their organizations’ annual meetings with the ASTA conference, along with supplemental programming from the Seed Innovation and Protection Alliance.

Both hotels for the event are now sold out, but other nearby hotel options are available. We hope to see you in San Diego!
