Most farms (25,500 out of 39, 120) are family-managed; beef and wool represent the main activities and main source of income for 65% of them, followed byvegetable farming at 12%, dairyfarming at 11 %, hogs at 2%, and poultry also at 2%. Beef is the main export commodity ofthe country. Uruguay has a population of 3.25 million inhabitants (2011 census) of whom 1.3 million live in the capital and largest Montevideo.

SALA AZUL "DR. AQUILES LANZA" -• HALL .. SALA DORADA ~ Speaker Todd Einhorn Michigan State University Todd Einhorn is Associate Professor and Tree Fruits Specialistwith Michigan State University(MSU). He directs a pragmatic research and outreach program focused on production efficiency of tree fruit orchards with emphases on regulation of plant growth and development, rootstock/scion interactions, flowering and fruit set biology, cold hardiness and modification of canopy architecture. Prior to joining the faculty at MSU, Einhorn led a European pear and sweet cherry research program at Oregon State University (Mid-Columbia Agricultura! Research and Extension Center). Einhorn is an active member of the USDA Pyrus Clonal Germplasm Committee, secretaryofthe American Pomological Society and chair of the Pear committee ofthe USDA Multistate Research Project, NC140 (lmproving economic and environmental sustainability in tree-fruit production through changes in rootstock use). He was the recent recipient of the Washington State Horticulture Association's 2016 Silver Pear Award and the Oregon, Columbia Gorge Fruit Growers 2017 Dr. Tim Facteau Award far his contributions to the Pacific Northwesttree fruit industries, most notably pear. Speaker David Michael Granatstein Washington University David Granatstein is Professor Emeritus with Washington State University, having spent the past 30 years in Wenatchee, Washington, USA, doing extension and applied research on sustainable agriculture and organic farming. Areas of focus have included orchard floor management, soil quality, organic sector trends, cover crops, ecolabeling, and Climate Friendly Farming. He organized the 2012 ISHS organic fruit symposium in Washington State and has spoken at many state, national, and international conferences. He has also participated in agricultura! development projects in a number of countries. Speaker Stefano Musacchi Washington State University Stefano Musacchi is a Professor and Endowed Cha ir ofTree Fruit Physiology and Management at WSU. Dr. Musacchi's academic training is in Pomology (MS and PhD). He taught far 13 years at University of Bologna ltaly and 6 years at the University of Bolzano. He joined Washington State University 5 years ago and he has established a broad research program that covers orchard management and fruit quality. He is the PD of several projects. A special mentían is far the "ldentifying and Managing Sources of Quarantine-Significant Post Harvest Diseases in Pacific NorthwestApple and Pear Orchards" projectfunded bythe USDA Foreign Agricultura! Service's Technical Assistance far Specialty Crops (TASC). This project has been funded far 5 years (2014-2019) with a total budget of $1.9 mi Ilion. In his brief time at WSU he has already attracted in total over $8.78M. In ltaly he was the National coordinator of the "Management and Crop lnnovations far High-Quality Pear Production" project (€3.5 million). He is currently supervising the "Pear Breeding Rootstocks and Cultivars" project based in Bologna (€350,000). In 2014, Dr. Musacchi patented 4 new pear cultivars. He has 63 English-language publications and 86 publications in ltalian. He serves in the editorial board of several Journal: Agronomy, eJHS (European Journal of Horticultura! Science), AIMS Agriculture Journal and Asían Journal of Life Sciences. Speaker - Yuanwen Teng Zhejiang University Dr. Yuanwen Teng is Professor at the College of Agriculture and Biotechnology of Zhejiang University. He obtained his Ph.D. in agricultura! science in 1998 at Tottori University, Japan, after finishing his studies at the Northwestern Agricultura! University, China. After sorne years of research at Tottori University including a postdoctoral fellowship by the Japanese Society far the Promotion of Science, he moved back to China. He has published numerous papers in international journals about his research on: molecular phylogeny, evolution, and genetic diversity of horticultura! plants with emphasis on Pyrus genera; molecular mechanisms underlying fruit quality; fruit trees dormancy. He was awarded in 2015 the First prize of Natural Sciences given bythe Ministryof Education ofChina. Speaker Karen Theron University of Stellenbosch Karen Theron has been associated with Stellenbosch University, starting as a lecturer since 1985 and later became Full Professor and Chair of the Department of Horticultura! Science. She is currently the first incumbent in the HORTGRO Cha ir in Applied Pre-harvest Deciduous Fruit Research at the Dept. of Horticultura! Science, Stellenbosch University. As the name implies she busies herself in more applied aspects of deciduous fruit production and enjoys doing research on plant growth regulators, fruit thinning etc. She is however also still active in undergraduate teaching and post graduate supervision and has published 70 peer reviewed scientific papers, and graduated 68 Masters- and 1 O PhD-students.
