Novus International was a primary sponsor of the first World Agricultural Forum (WAF) Asia Roundtable held last week in Phuket, Thailand.

“At Novus, our corporate mission is to help feed the world affordable, wholesome food.” Novus president and CEO Thad Simons, pictured here (right) at the conference talking with Bangaran Saragih, Former Minister of Agriculture Indonesia. “Novus has a thriving business in Asia, we are proud to support the valuable work of the World Agricultural Forum and to play a key role in this historic, regional event.”
