Conference Theme : New Perspective in Urban and Public Health IPM in Asia and Oceania.

You are cordially invited to attend the First and the Finest Integrated Pest Management Convention to be amongst the world class invited speakers, and more than 60 exhibition booths, showcasing today’s leading edge technologies and services of the pest management industry from around the world.

FAOPMA has a long 27 years of convention history, and there have been 7 highly successful Pest Summit conventions in the past. By amalgamating both together, we now speak and represent

the pest management industry in Asia and Oceania in one voice. The 2-day “FAOPMA-Pest Summit 2017” convention is the FIRST convention after the merging of the FAOPMA convention, and the Pest Summit series. This convention will be focusing on the New Perspectives in Urban and Public Health IPM in Asia and Oceania (every attendee will receive a FAOPMA participation certificate), plus a 1-day AIB Certification Program on “Basic Integrated Pest Management for Food Plants” (any attendee who passes the test will receive an AIB certificate).

This extraordinary convention is specially tailor-made for the pest management business owner and their staff; chemical and equipment providers; food-processing industry personnel and their staff, QC/QA personnel, and other related businesses. English will be the only medium in this conference, but live simultaneous translation to other languages can be arranged when the respective country minimum registration number is met

2nd WIN international Conference on “Integrated approaches and innovative tools for combating insecticide resistance in arbovirus vectors”

Organized jointly by the French Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) and Duke-NUS Medical School of Singapore, the conference will serve as a forum for addressing the progress, research gaps and priorities for the control of vectors of emerging arboviruses and the management of insecticide resistance. The conference has been labelled ‘‘France-Singapore Year of Innovation 2018″.

The conference will facilitate the involvement of scientists, stakeholders, members of the private and public sectors, and decision makers from around the world to share knowledge and ideas and to provide recommendations for the improvement of insecticide resistance surveillance and deployment of innovative vector control tools.

After a successful launch in 2017, AgChem & Technology Europe will return for its 2nd annual event in London on 20-21 November 2018.

As Europe is the most regulated continent within agriculture, the AgChem & Technology congress will focus on novel approaches to agrochemicals within R&D, formulation and application departments. With emphasis on producing sustainable products and addressing how EU regulations are impacting the industry.

Smart formulation technologies are now key, especially as fewer active ingredients are being approved within Europe. This has caused a shift towards the use of multiple active ingredients and  more complex formulations. With a growing population, the agricultural industry requires large volumes of agrochemicals. Therefore, innovation within R&D for new active ingredients is essential to moving forward.

The AgChem & Technology Congress will bring together peers researching active ingredients innovation, incorporating biologicals into combination pesticides and developing emerging application science such as AgTech.

Key experts who contributed to the agenda and research include representatives from: Bayer AG, Corteva AgriScience, Syngenta, Croda, ISAA and many more.

AgChem & Technology – addressing the most pressing and intriguing questions within the industry!

The event will be split into two tracks: R&D of Active Ingredients and Formulation & Application Technologies.  Key focus will be on:

• how to move forward with producing new pesticides in a highly regulated space
• tackling pesticide resistance
• how to approach innovation and develop and find new mode of action targets
• formulating chemical and biological actives
• how to approach overcoming spray drift
• implementing and regulating new application technology
