This conference will discuss the following topics: the properties of fruit tomatoes, the differences with regular tomatoes, the market prospects for 2018, the most suitable production areas for fruit tomato plantations in China, as well as the reproduction of fruit tomato plantation technology.

In addition, all participants in this conference will have the opportunity on the second day (March 24th) to visit and inspect fruit tomato seedling cultivation and plantation, as well as investigate the intelligent production installations that originate in Israel.
