NJF seminar 433
Towards the sustainable greenhouse production
Plant production and energy saving in a global world
15-17 November 2010 Denmark
 
Background
The greenhouse horticulture sector is under pressure of the huge energy expenses. The sector’s energy consumption needs to be reduced, and efforts are being made to find solutions which will both reduce costs and benefit the environment. Reducing energy consumption often reduces the quality of plants, and new technological solutions and increased understanding of the physiological reactions of plants will be necessary to achieve energy reduction while maintaining plant quality. In the future, the horticultural sector, universities, ATS companies (Authorised Technology Service) and other technological companies will work together to find a solution.
Topics
Greenhouse technology
Plant production and control
Implementation and use
Keynote speakers
Dr. Leo Marcelis, WUR Plant reactions in closed greenhouses,
Dr. Achim Walters, Research Centre Jülich, Phenotyping for plants of the future

Call for papers and posters
We will allocate 45 minutes for keynote speakers and 15 for oral presentations. The posters will be accessable during the whole meeting.
Guidelines for P&P are available on www.njf.nu í Seminars í Organizing NJF seminars.
Travel information
How to reach the seminar
By plane and train
Odense is literally in the centre of Denmark on the main rail line. The nearest airport is Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup), which has a direct train to Odense every hour. The travel time is about 1. 40 min. For more information: the Danish Rail homepage (http://www.dsb.dk).

Taxi/Bus:
You get a cab or a bus at the taxi rank behind the main station. Look for the signs in the central station. The trip from the centre of Odense City to the College takes 15-20 minutes, depending on the time of day. The alternative airport is Billund (BLL) in Jylland, where a public transport is limited.

Arriving by car?
If you prefer car Odense is just north of the main motorway. Be aware that
travelling by car from Copenhagen requires toll payment at the Great Belt
Bridge. If you're driving on the E20 motorway, take the “Motorvejskryds Odense” exit and head for Odense.
