Angers

This year’s conference takes place in Angers

Since 1976, Prognosfruit has released the annual forecast of apple and pear production for the upcoming season, with a conference organised in a different country each year. In 2025, the three-day event during which the report will be released will see representatives of the sector gather to discuss the Northern Hemisphere situation as well as global perspectives for apples and pears. Following the Prognosfruit Conference on 7 August, the delegates will have the opportunity to participate in technical orchard and packhouse visits.

Given its commitment to the environment, particularly through the Eco-Responsible Orchards label, the ANPP has announced that this event will be carbon neutral, with the offsetting to be achieved through orchard plantings.

The Prognosfruit 2025 programme, the online registration form to attend the conference, and a platform to book your accommodation in Angers are all available on the Prognosfruit website. Register by 8 June to take advantage of the Early Bird Fee!
