An information packed Organic Producer Conference

Despite the inclement weather the 2010 Organic Producer Conference was very well attended and information packed, with many inspirational speakers.

Working with the Organic Growers Alliance, The Institute of Organic Training and Advice, The Colloquium of Organic Researchers, GM Freeze and other producer and research groups, the Organic Research Centre pulled together a stimulating and highly informative programme.

The conference's presentations will soon be made available on this website.

There were many speakers giving a variety of presentations in sessions designed to inform and maximise the opportunities to participate.

The Plenary sessions focused on the big issues of Sustainable Food Security and Climate Change whilst the workshop sessions covered a range of technical and policy issues including livestock nutrition, varieties and breeding, agroforestry, farm economics, nutrient management, animal welfare, GM issues, biodiversity management, market trends and communicating the organic message.
