Seed Congress of the Americas: Day 1 Photos

Day 1 of the Seed Congress of the Americas did not disappoint.

Seed World LATAM was on the ground in Buenos Aires, Argentina. From the opening ceremony featuring Claudio Dunan (INASE), Pablo Cortese (SENASA), Nicolás Gear (ASA) and Richard Winn (SAA) to the sessions throughout the day, the first day of the Congress had something for everyone.

Here are a few snapshots from the day.

Sergio Iraeta, Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries of the Government of Argentina. “Without seeds there is no production. Without seeds there is no food. Seed production is paramount. We are doing what we have to do right now: planting new seeds, planting seeds of freedom so that Argentina can flourish again.”

Nicolás Gear, president of ASA Argentina. When asked what three words describe the seed sector, he said livelihood or food, innovation and work.

Nicolas Sahli from CIS Agro, also one of our Seed World Insiders, said his three words to describe the seed sector were: dynamic, essential for food production, and innovative.
