IUFRO Biocontrol meeting: Extended abstract deadline and update on field trip
by Brett Hurley
Dear all
Thank you to all those that have already submitted their abstracts for the upcoming meeting of IUFRO Working Group 7.03.13 ‘Biological control of forest insect pests and pathogens’, which will take place at Future Africa in Pretoria, South Africa, from 6-8 November 2019.
We have decided to extend the abstract submission deadline to 1 July 2019. Please ensure that you don’t miss this date, as we are unlikely to be able to extend the deadline further.
Information on the post-meeting field trip is now available on the website. The field trip will be a great way to conclude the meeting, including stops to view and discuss forest insect pests and their management, as well as exposure to some of South Africa’s incredible native fauna and flora. And of course an excellent opportunity to engage with fellow researchers.
