| Produce Marketing Association Conference PMA Produce Trade Show Food soon won't be what it used to be. That's the message that Protected Harvest is taking to the largest food grower's conference in the United States which is being held in San Diego this week. Protected Harvest is an independent, national non-profit organization that operates a certification program for growers interested in applying the latest environmentally friendly techniques. Protected Harvest monitors their compliance with the program's strict standards, and then requires that the produce is delivered from the field to the grocery store without interference. The Produce Marketing Association (PMA) Produce Trade Show & Exposition is attended by environmentalists, public officials and agricultural leaders. The conference will include 800 exhibitors, 2, 000 companies and 17, 000 attendees from 70 countries. The conference will allow attendees to gain insight into how the industry is doing, what issues the industry will be faced with in the coming year, what the industry has learned and what might the future hold. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Exhibition News :: home page |
