The #IFAJ2016 Learns About Rhineland Farming

Chuck Zimmerman

IFAJ Welcome DinnerThe keynote speaker for the welcoming banquet of this year’s IFAJ Congress was Bernhard Conzen, President of the Rhineland Agricultural Association, Chairman of the Board, Rheinischer Landwirtschafts-Verlag GmbH.

Sugar beets are a very important and historical crop in this area and Bernhard talks about it in his remarks which includes a very complete description of the region. I didn’t know that Bonn was settled by Romans under Julius Caesar, and that cultural heritage influences the city to this day. This is also the home of Beethoven. Learn more about the Rhineland region in his speech.
