CTRE conferences

Since 1987, a group of researchers and advisers have met to exchange experience and experiment results in relation to the growing of Christmas trees and greenery. These international conferences are now taking place every other year under the auspices of the IUFRO with rotating location in either North America or Europe. Below you find an overview of the conferences held so far, and from and including the 6th conference in North Carolina proceedings have been written in wake of all conferences. You can download these proceedings in English on the IUFRO’s home page. Read more about the IUFRO-group 2.02.09 – Christmas trees
