The 1st EUFRIN Nut Tree Working Group Meeting

A Shell Fruit Species Working Group was founded in January 2015, by an of the European Fruit Research Institute Network (furthermore EUFRIN) board member. This WG focuses on new innovations in the European Persian walnut, almond, hazelnut, chestnut and pistachio research and production. The WG aims to represent the European researchers dealing with nut fruit species. Breeders, plant pathologists, plant physiologists, food scientists, researchers in nursery production, micropropagation, pathogens, insects, evaluation of cultivars, rootstocks, orchard systems, post-harvest, market value on the nut fruit species are welcome in this WG. To register interested participants or researchers should send an e-mail to the chairman of the Group. The WG is interested in new tendencies, results of the members, and thus organises a 2-day meeting every two to three years. This WG is to summarize the European nut tree research and represent the requests and interests of the WG members to European authorities and funding organizations.
The first WG meeting was held at the National Agricultural Research and Innovation Center Fruitculture Research Institute in Budapest (Hungary) on 10 and 11 November 2015. During this meeting 25 delegates representing 11 countries (France, Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Serbia, Romania, Slovakia, Iran, and Hungary) reported their nut fruit species industry as well as results of their new research.
