SORRY, THIS EVENT IS NOW CANCELLED.
The 2020 RASC Conference will be held in Norwich, Norfolk, UK from 30 June to 11 July 2020.
Since 1963, the Commonwealth Agriculture Conference has been held biennially in Commonwealth nations across the world and is designed to give delegates a taste of the agriculture industry in that region of the host country.
The 29th Commonwealth Agriculture Conference title is “Circling the World” focusing on improving the interaction of circular economies and agriculture in sustainably overcoming the challenges that food production currently poses.
The RASC was launched in Norfolk in 1957 and the Royal Norfolk Agricultural Association is delighted to be hosting the 2020 conference. Plans are advancing including:
Sandringham Estate tour
Royal Norfolk Show visit
Holkham Estate visit
Trips in to the city of Norwich and further afield into Suffolk.
Delegates will have the choice of accommodation at Dunston Hall, a 4* hotel to the south of Norwich, or at the University of East Anglia where the conference is being held. The theme of the conference will be based around the challenges affecting the Commonwealth as a whole, and how these relate to agriculture.
