Good luck this week to S who is presenting at the 2006 Annual International Research Conference on Methyl Bromide Alternatives and Emissions Reductions in Orlando, Florida.

This conference is devoted to the sharing of information on current and ongoing research into methyl bromide alternatives. Attendance in the past has surpassed 400 researchers, growers, and interested persons, with a significant level of international participation. The conference will feature concurrent sessions concerning research on alternatives to methyl bromide for preplant, post-harvest, and structural uses.

On Monday he'll be presenting "Strawberry Yield and Weed Control with Alternative Fumigants Applied in Combination with Metam Under Various Tarps" and on Thursday he'll be talking about "Strawberry Production and Weed Control in Soils Treated with BASAMID and Chloropicrin."
