The 2024 Agri-Science Showcase & Fall Fest
The Florida Grower Citrus Show is an annual event focused on the latest research on citrus production, including HLB management, tree nutrition, and smart irrigation, and for the first time in 77 years, vegetable production.
The 2023 Florida Citrus Show attracted a record number of attendees--more that 700 citrus growers, trade personnel and industry experts turned out for the event. International and national registrants were on record and growers from across the state of Florida gathered to network, learn new methods and ideas, and find ways to improve their respective businesses. UF/IFAS has been a long-time partner and participant in the Florida Citrus Show, presented by AgNet Media, the Indian River Citrus League and our neighbor, the United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service United States Horticultural Research Laboratory (USDA ARS USHRL).
