Dear All,
The Conference on Conservation Agriculture for Smallholders (CASH) in Asia
and Africa, 7-11 December 2014 will be held at Mymensingh, Bangladesh
during 7-11 December, 2014. This CASH event will be an ideal place for
Conservation Agriculture practitioners, researchers, policy makers and
others to - i) talk to Conservation Agriculture (CA) leaders, including
producers, advisors, researchers, policy makers and industry; ii) network
with peers from around the world; iii) engage in policy discussion; and iv)
learn the latest research on CA. Please visit http://www.scac2014.org/ for
detail.
We have already identified the following keynote speakers:
1. Dr. Amir Kassam, Keynote Speaker of the opening session to
present "An overview of the current status of conservation agriculture
globally and for Asia and Africa” to identify progress made and challenges
remaining with designing and adapting CA to the circumstances of the
smallholders.
2. Professor Deirdre Lemerle, Keynote Speaker - Theme 2: " Weed
management: Suitable weed management options (chemical, mechanical, crop
rotation and biological)".
3. Dr. Christian Thierfelder, Keynote Speaker - Theme 3: "Soil and
water management and agronomy for smallholder Conservation Agriculture".
4. Dr. Rafael Fuentes, Keynote Speaker - Theme 4:
"Commercialization adoption and continuous improvement of CA-based
technologies".
5. Dr. Peter Hobbs, Keynote Speaker - Theme 5: "Policy and
institutional framework of Conservation Agriculture and general reflections
on the conference".
The large volume of queries received from different people about the
conference is also encouraging.
With this email, I am encouraging you to submit relevant papers and attend
the CASH Conference to share your research findings among the CA community.
It will be highly appreciated if you please forward this email along with
attachments to other concerned.
Thank you very much for support to CASH Conference.
Sincerely yours,
Enam
