GreenTech Americas, spin-off of GreenTech Amsterdam, will take place from 24-26 March 2020 in Querétaro, Mexico. According to the organizers, this is a logical next step, as Mexico is a major agricultural producer, the number of hectares under protected agriculture is growing exponentially and it is the gateway to the US, Canada and South America.
Why GreenTech Americas?
Mariska Dreschler, Director Horticulture GreenTech: "We believe that with GreenTech Amsterdam as a global platform we should reach out to the emerging markets in the world. We need a regional platform in the western part of the world to meet the regional needs of the growers. By organizing GreenTech Americas we are able to address the specific needs of the growers and suppliers from this emerging region. Looking at e.g. the specific climates, the producers and consumer needs. We believe the GreenTech Americas is complementing the portfolio of the domain Horticulture strategically."
More facts
Mexico has two main export markets: the US and Canada. The production value is around USD 3 Billion coming from exports of almost 3 million tons. The number of hectares under protection has a surface of 40,862 hectares, which places them on the 6th position worldwide in protected agriculture.
