INTERNATIONAL PEPPER CONFERENCE 2022

With the final countdown to the 25th biennial International Pepper Conference just days away, we want to encourage everyone who grows, processes, conducts research, educates about, or just enjoys chile peppers to get on board! 

The early bird pre-registration discount ends August 26^th!

We are also excited to announce that for anyone interested in only the field day portion of the event (Sep. 27^th), a stand-alone, one-day registration is available for $200 with walk up/ same day attendees welcome!

The conference will have an active schedule with many educational opportunities including:

• Farm level breeding programs
• Mechanical harvest technology
• Pepper diseases and their management
• Basic crop management science, heat units, fertility, and irrigation protocols developed by our own Dr. Jeff Silvertooth, University of Arizona
• Breeding mechanical harvest type plants with Dr. Stephanie Walker, New Mexico State University
• How to grow any type of PEPPER for mechanical harvest with Dr. Ben Villalon, Texas A&M Professor Emeritus
• Disease prevention at a molecular level with Dr. Steve Hansen, New Mexico State University
• Pepper flavor at the molecular level with Dr. Randy Hauptmann, BioGold LLC
• Biopharmaceuticals at a molecular level with Dr. Bhimu Patel, Texas A&M

And the list goes on......

What we hope to encapsulate in our program is the integration of basic on-farm agriculture and advanced technologies to demonstrate the importance of both approaches in moving forward the multifaceted and beautiful world of 🌶PEPPER!

WE CORDIALLY INVITE ANY AND ALL PARTICIPANTS. WALK UP REGISTRATIONS WILL BE WELCOME! I AM EXCITED TO SEE YOU THERE!
