International Fruit Production Conference and Fair BELGRADE 2018

The first ever International Fruit Production Conference and Fair ProfiFruit took place on 9-10 March 2018 in Belgrade. This year, the first day of the fair focused on apples, and the second—on berries. The participants were invited to take part in a variety of events and activities related to fruit production.
 
Both Serbian and foreign fruit growers appreciated the wide range of expert-led lectures. Speakers from Serbia, Poland, Holland, Germany, and Slovenia delivered a total of 17 lectures on a variety of topics including production economy, variety choice, crop protection and fertilisation, mechanisation in the orchards, and modern storage technologies. The Science Partner of the fair was the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Novi Sad.
 
The other key part of the event was the fair which attracted representatives of dozens of companies from Serbia, Holland, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Austria, Germany, France, and USA. The exhibitors had a chance to reach great numbers of professional growers in a relaxed environment. Meanwhile, the growers could access first-hand knowledge about the products themselves.
 
The participants could also take part in a dedicated series of lectures by Bayer, the Gold Partner of ProfiFruit Belgrade 2018, as well as visit Bayer’s stand during the fair for more information.
The event was held under the patronage of the Ambassador of Poland to Serbia, HE Mr Tomasz Niegodzisz. The ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Serbia HE Mr Henk van den Dool was the guest of honour during the opening. We were also proud to welcome representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry for European Integration of the Republic of Serbia.
Over the two days, an estimated 1000 participants took part in the fair and conference, making ProfiFruit the largest international horticulture event in Serbia. Those at home could watch the extensive coverage of the event on the local media.
