The Annual CAIGE meeting occurs once a year during the Wheat breeders meeting week. An important part of the Annual CAIGE meeting is the discussion open to the floor after all the presentations have been given. A time is dedicated for the audience to raise their opinions about the direction of CAIGE project. We do value the thoughts and inputs from the CAIGE community.
Next meeting
