Meeting of the joint EAPR sections Agronomy & Physiology and Post Harvest
16th-19th June 2026, Warsaw, Poland
The 2026 EAPR joint section meeting provides a forum for the exchange of knowledge on the cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), from agronomy, precision agriculture, biochemistry, physiology, and postharvest assessment, to issues related to potato storage and potato processing.
The conference will feature lectures by internationally renowned scientists, research papers, and posters, and a planned field trip. The conference offers those interested in potato issues the opportunity to meet with colleagues from around the world.
With great pleasure I would like to invite you to:
