An invitation is extended to organisations and institutions supporting the internationalforestry industry to participate as an exhibitor at the Australian Forest Growers International Biennial Conference.

This important biennial event will feature local and international speakers who are experts in their field bringing to delegates the latest developments and technologies that are of interest to our industry members.

The Trade show is an integral part of the conference giving exhibitors the opportunity to demonstrate and promote the advantages of their products and services as well as new developments directly to the delegates. In addition, exhibitors will be able to meet and greet their customers and colleagues in one place in one of the greatest regional cities in Australia and enjoy plenty of fresh air and sunshine in a safe environment.

We anticipate this high profile event will attract 300-400 national and international participants. The conference theme,  "Sustainable Forestry - Everybody Benefits" puts a positive call out to the industry that this conference is one not to be missed! In particular we are reaching out to have as many people as possible involved in the three steams of the program, Farm Forestry, Research and Development and Policy and Planning.

The growth of the Tasmanian forestry industry has been outstanding as is the growth in private forestry nationally. We are confident that the 2006 conference will involve a greater proportion of tree farmers while maintaining the usual high standard of scientific presentations. This conference aims to attract delegates from South Africa , New Zealand and the United States .
