The National Seed Council of Egypt, the Turkish Seed Industry Association (TURKTED) and ICARDA will organize the Second International Seed Trade Conference 2007 in CWANA Region, to be held from 19-21 November 2007 in Cairo, Egypt.

The conference will not only provide opportunities for seed trade, but also contribute to dialog between the private and public sectors on harmonization of regulatory frameworks to promote seed trade in the region. A major focus of the conference will be trade exhibitions by seed companies, seed equipment manufacturers, agricultural input supply companies, and agricultural machinery manufacturers. Companies interested in participating in the conference or exhibiting their products should contact the conference secretariat.
