Invitation to Webinar - BioFresh

The project BioFresh, bioeconomic production of fresh greenhouse vegetables in Norway, started in 2017 with the goal to develop knowledge to support sustainable, resource effective and profitable production of fresh, high quality greenhouse vegetables. The project was supported by the Norwegian Research Council. You can find more information about the project on our website: www.biofresh.no

At the end of the project, we now organize two webinars. The first one is on the 17th June, targeting the scientific community. The second is on the 24th June, targeting producers, supplier industries, governmental organizations, and other stakeholders. The language in the first webinar is English and in the second webinar Norwegian. The webinars are available for free, but registration is mandatory. You can register by filling out the following links:
