About the FruitCREWS E-Seminar Series
The FruitCREWS E-Seminar Series serves as an open platform for researchers and practitioners interested in water-efficient fruit crop production. Through regular online sessions, the series brings together experts from different disciplines to share new findings, discuss analytical methods, and exchange experiences related to plant–water relations, irrigation management, and experimental approaches in fruit research.
We warmly invite the FruitCREWS community and interested participants to join the upcoming session and take part in the discussion.
