2022 Ministers Conference



Register now for the 2022 Nova Scotia Ministers Conference for Agriculture, November 3rd and 4th at the Halifax Convention Centre! 

 

Climate change, COVID-19, market trends, regulatory environments and the evolving role of technology are shaping the way producers and agri-food companies do business, and this year’s conference will explore how industry, government, and next generation thinkers in agriculture can work together to embrace change and cultivate success. 

 

Join us for sessions like ‘Down to Earth: Improving Soil Security, ‘Everything Under the Sun: Controlled Environment Agriculture & Season Extension’ and ‘The New World of Genomics in Agriculture’. Plus, a chance to network with peers during the tradeshow and Minister’s Reception.
