It is our pleasure to introduce you to the African Crop Science Society and invite you to consider becoming a sponsor of the 10th African Crop Science Conference to be held from 10th to 13th October 2011, in Maputo, Mozambique.

The African Crop Science Society (ACSS), established in 1993 to encourage crop production and food security in the African continent, is a society for researchers, producers, business people and technicians around the world. The ACSS organizes one international conference in every odd year in one of the African countries. The overall goal of the conference is to promote the active exchange of crop sciences information, innovation, and new ideas. Usually, it is attended by experts and distinguished keynote speakers and eminent scientists from Africa and of the entire globe.

The 10th African Crop Science Conference will emphasize the role of crop science research on providing for new and improved livelihood opportunities for farmers in Africa, which will impact on their income generation and food security. Conference thematic areas will include: agronomy, crop physiology and cropping systems, horticulture, crop genetics and improvement, crop protection, post harvest and food sciences, biotechnology, integrated crop and livestock systems, soil and water management, agricultural extension and education, agricultural economics, and environment and climate change in agriculture.

This conference is an opportunity to forge partnerships and share research results, experiences, information, products and/or services with more than 400 scientists, producers, business people and technicians from all over Africa that are anticipated to attend the conference. This event will facilitate a learning, dynamic and interactive environment, where opportunities will be created to interact and learn from each other and to open and broaden our horizons.

There are many opportunities for sponsorship through which organizations and companies can contribute to the success of the 10th African Crop Science Conference and we look forward to working with you. Sponsors will be acknowledged in the conference documentation and on the website.

Please consider giving your support to the 10th African Crop Science Conference.
