OSU's New CEA Conference

Jennifer Polanz

This year the Ohio Controlled Environment Agriculture Center at The Ohio State University will be hosting a one-day CEA conference for the first time. The event, called “Advancement of Microbial Technologies for Controlled Environment Agriculture,” will feature a number of speakers on topics like biofungicides, biopesticides and exploring the CEA microbiome.

The event takes place Wednesday, July 20, which is perfect timing with Cultivate’22. If you’re coming in for Cultivate, plan on tacking on a day to spend at OSU. You’ll also be able to tour the new CEA research facility that’s in progress (pictured here).

The bulk of the event will take place at the Kunz-Brundige Franklin County Extension Building in Columbus. And, if you can’t make it in person, there’s also a Zoom online option.
