American Society for Horticultural Science
The First Annual HRI Alternative Substrates Conference

Over the last several years the Horticultural Research Institute, USDA-ARS and Land Grant Universities have directed considerable resources toward research and development of alternative container substrates. You are invited to attend a conference revealing the current status of this national effort on Thursday January 20th, 2011, from 9:00 – 12:00 a.m. This conference is sponsored by the Horticultural Research Institute Inc. and will be held in conjunction with the Southern Nursery Association Research Conference and the Gulf States Horticultural Expo. The conference is free and open to all those in attendance at the GSHE. Learn what research has revealed about these alternative materials. How do these materials perform in production? What are the good, the bad, and the limitations with these materials? What is currently or will be the commercial availability of these materials? At the conclusion of the conference the presenters will engage in dialog and exchange views with growers, suppliers and other researchers.
