The scientific program of the VII World Avocado Congress will include the latest information on avocado production and management issues, with special emphasis on the future of the industry. The Congress’s program also includes avocado marketing presentations and panel discussions about promotional and trade topics from all over the world.

Australia is a very large country, the world’s largest island, it has one of the world’s most ancient cultures in one of the youngest countries, and offers many climates and landscapes, from the deserts in our centre, to the snow capped mountains of our south, to the tropical north, thousands of kilometres of coast and pristine beaches. Enjoy with our relaxed hospitality, beaches, fresh food and wine.

Our aim is to make your participation an unforgettable experience!

Yours Sincerely,

Antony Allen

President Elect of the International Avocado Society and
CEO Avocados Australia
