Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the organizing committee it is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the 13-th "DURABLE AGRICULTURE – AGRICULTURE OF THE FUTURE" Annual Meeting to be held in Craiova, Romania, at the Faculty of Agronomy of the University of Craiova. Particular focus of the conference: "ADVANCED METHODS FOR A SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE, SILVICULTURE AND FOOD SCIENCE."See you in CRAIOVA in NOVEMBER 2017 ! Prof.assoc. M.

Dear Collegues
We are looking forward to see many of you in our next IUFRO 8.01.02 Working Party Conference http://iufrole2017.eli-web.com/ 24-29 Halle, Germany
The topic of the Conference is "The Green-Blue Nexus": addressing the conflicts between provisioning services (the "Green"), such as timber / biomass and forest by-products (food and fodder) and regulating services (the "Blue") (e.g., cleaning drinking water, flood and erosion regulation) in relation to other impacts on biodiversity and the supporting structures and key ecological processes that enable the supply of these services
All the relevant information is in the attach. Flyer (please distribute it widely! ) and also on the web site
Deadline for Abstract submission: 14th July 2017
Looking forward to see you in Halle this year!

Reactivation of the International Society of Tropical Foresters
Dear International Foresters:
We are reactivating the International Society of Tropical Foresters which has been dormant for the last five years. The first step is to rebuild the list of people interested in ISTF. If you would like to connect with us, please send the following information to Teija Reyes reyesteija(a)gmail.com or Sheila Ward mahoganyforthefuture(a)gmail.com:
First and last name
Title
Email address
Web page (if any)
Country of origin
Country of residence
Organization or institution
Languages
Short description of areas of expertise (25 words or less)
Countries of professional experience
At present, we have three sources of information for International Tropical Foresters.
1) Blair Orr at Michigan Technical University has kindly continued the ISTF newsletter as a newsletter for the Society of American Foresters International Forestry Working Group, and is still sending it to the old ISTF mailing list. This newsletter can be downloaded at: http://www.orrforest.net/saf/
If you wish to subscribe to the newsletter, please send your email address to Teija Reyes reyesteija(a)gmail.com or Sheila Ward mahoganyforthefuture(a)gmail.com and they will send it on to Blair.
2) The old ISTF web page can be still be found at http://www.istf-bethesda.org/
3) You can join the ISTF facebook group page at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2262122534/
We hope to have your participation in the new ISTF! Please forward this to others.

Mark your calendars for the international conference on
Managing eucalypt plantations under global changes; Montpellier, France;
17-21 September 2018
Eucalypt plantations cover approximately 20 million hectares worldwide and
are expanding rapidly to provide the raw material for wood, paper, and
biofuel products as well as large amounts of firewood and charcoal for
domestic uses. Breeding programs and silvicultural practices must be
revisited to face the ongoing global changes.
As in previous IUFRO meetings (Bordeaux 1990, Hobart 1995, Salvador 1997,
Valdivia 2001, Aveiro 2004, Durban 2007, Porto Seguro 2011, Nanning 2015),
this conference will be a great opportunity for scientists and managers of
forest plantations to present the recent advances in silviculture and
genetics and to improve our understanding of the response of eucalypts to
biotic and abiotic stresses. The ecosystem services influenced by eucalypt
monocultures and mixed-species plantations with eucalypt trees will be
addressed.
Details at: https://eucalyptus2018.cirad.fr/
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Montpellier next year!
