The C.T. De Wit Graduate School Production Ecology & Resource
Conservation at Wageningen University in collaboration with the
University of Florida, is offering a 6-day Postgraduate Course for PhD
candidates and other academics entitled "Fundamentals of Crop Physiology
in a Changing World." The course is scheduled from June 3-8, 2018 in
Hotel de Bosrand, Ede, the Netherlands. Course lecturers include Frank
Ewert, Ken Boote, Pierre Martre, Paul Struik, Xinyou Yin, Jochem Evers,
Melanie Correll, and many others. The course will focus on the
fundamental knowledge and insight one must have about crops to be able
to adapt agronomic practices to the changing world. The toolbox in this
course will be a variety of plant and crop models. The overall goal of
this course is to understand the effects of temperature, light, CO2, and
water on the carbon source-sink relationships of plants and to improve
the underlying models.
The workshop brochure is attached. For further information and
