The Association of community Social Volunteers International (ACSVI) was invited by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences to participate in the forthcoming First International Congress of Biological Control to be held at Beijing Friendship Hotel and Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, May 14-16, 2018. This congress, hosted jointly by Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), Chinese Society of Plant Protection (CSPP) and International Organization for Biological Control (IOBC) will cover a wide range of biological control topics regarding insect pests, invasive weeds and plant diseases.
The purpose of the conference is to strengthen communication and cooperation between researchers investigating biological control techniques of insect pests, invasive weeds and plant diseases, and to promote the global development of biological control technology and industry. The theme of this congress is Biological Control for a Healthy Planet with a sub-theme of Interdisciplinary Biological Control.
We have invited many excellent scientists to attend the congress and more excellent investigators are joining the congress. We are confident that you will enjoy the congress in Beijing, China’s beautiful and historic capital city and discuss new developments and future directions of biological control with scientists around the world.
