The 2013 AOA National Olive Industry Conference and Trade Exhibition is now just a fortnight away, being held in Hobart, Tasmania on October 7-8. Encompassing the national conference, trade expo and awards presentations, the event venue also provides delegates with the chance to combine attendance with a well-deserved break. This year’s theme, Ensuring a healthy future, looks at the various aspects reflected in the term ‘healthy’: healthy trees and soil; healthy profitability; and a healthy product – what we all want for our industry into the future. Registrations are still open, so book your place now, but must be submitted via email to secretariat@australianolives.com.au. For more information see the official event program inside the September edition of Olivegrower & Processor, or go the AOA’s conference website: http://www.nationaloliveconference.com.au.
