As growers prepare for the next season, August is the perfect time to review what’s new in the citrus industry. The Citrus & Specialty Crop Expo on Aug. 17–18 in North Fort Myers is the ideal venue to get the latest research updates while learning about new products and services.
The August issue of Citrus Industry magazine serves as the show guide to the Expo. Find the seminar schedule, a list of participating vendors and everything you need to maximize your time at the event.
