This just in from Alex Lyon, a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He She and some friends are planning a symposium for graduate students interested in plant breeding and seed systems for organic agriculture, and he she asked us to help get the word out. Happy to do so.
We are inviting applications from graduate students in plant breeding and related programs for the first Student Organic Seed Symposium. The event will be held at the Lakeview Inn in Greensboro, Vermont, from August 5 – August 8, 2012. Hosted by High Mowing Organic Seeds and organized by students from the University of Wisconsin – Madison, the Student Organic Seed Symposium aspires to build a community of graduate students interested in plant breeding and seed systems for organic agriculture.
