The annual ASSCT Conference is the premier technical and professional event of the Australian sugar industry, and the 2020 conference in Bundaberg is celebrating the theme of Smart Science and Innovation. I encourage everyone to attend and use this opportunity to collaborate, think outside the square and hopefully by the end of the conference some new ideas and directions will be forged for the industry.

Our Keynote speaker is Mr Richard Heath, Executive director of the Australian Farm Institute, Director of the GRDC and former director Nuffield Australia Farming Scholars. Mr Heath is passionate about advancing the Australian agriculture industry and ensuring it stays profitable, sustainable, and competitive in the new global “smart” agriculture space.
