We invite you to participate in the Second International Vegetable Grafting Symposium to be held July 14-18, 2019 in Charlotte, NC USA. This symposium will be a great opportunity to include your voice and represent your program, company, experience, and interests in vegetable grafting in at least one of three ways. First, offer a technical presentation. Abstracts for presentations will be accepted until March 8, 2019. Second, contribute as an attendee. The symposium will proceed using a dynamic, interactive format. "Clusters" of technical presentations during scientific sessions will be followed by moderated discussions aimed at developing consensus-based takeaway messages outlining the best immediate practical applications of the research-based information just shared. Presenters, participants, and other contributors will address a wide range of forward thinking technical/scientific-, education-, and industry application-related topics specific to vegetable grafting. Register to participate in the discussion, planning, and post-symposium tour and social events held in conjunction with the program. Finally, support the symposium through sponsorship. Regardless of your interest, please use tabs at left to submit an abstract, register as an attendee, and/or contribute a sponsorship.
