The eighth annual EurepGAP conference will take place this year in Bangkok, Thailand, on 6-7 September 2007.

The EurepGAP Asia Conference will cover the latest developments with retailers and major suppliers operating in the region, present the latest version of the EurepGAP protocol and what is new in the standard and will feature presentations about food safety and sustainability from experts in the field.

There will also be the opportunity to learn how multi-stakeholder groups across the region are developing national GAP codes to include small-scale farmers, receive the latest information on inspection and auditing and contribute to EurepGAP's stakeholder consultation on its aquaculture scope of the Integrated Farm Assurance standard.
