From 1 to 17 October 2014 Protected Cropping Australia (PCA) is organizing the North American Greenhouse Study Tour. The two week tour will be a mix of hydroponic, greenhouse & aquaponic farm tours, technical research centres, Canadian Greenhouse Conference & industry networking.
The complete trip will be guided by Graeme Smith. Originally a tomato grower, Graeme now is a highly regarded consultant for a diverse range of hydroponic & greenhouse crops, across many climates. Graeme has hosted several PCA overseas study tours to Europe & North America, which are so well received that many participants return for a second trip and/or send their business partners.
Visit state of the art greenhouse operations in a climate similar to your own, such as the Houwelingen Oxnard Nurseries.
