    Successful BDC Jahrestagung

    Oct 05, 2021

    The 73th Congress of the Bund Deutscher Champignon- und Kulturpilzanbauer (BDC) was successfully  held at the Mövenpick Hotel in Berlin, on Thursday 30 September and Friday 1 October, 2021.

    The event started with the member meeting on Thursday, followed by the open lecture program on Friday.

    During the member meeting, there were discussions on the use (and financing) of alternatives for the use of peat in casing soil in the mushroom industry, which seems to become a big game changer. See for a very topical article on this in Mushroom Business no 108 (out now!).

    On 14-17 September, the International Society for Mushroom Science (ISMS) held its scientific conference. The event had been scheduled for 2020 in conjunction with the 26th North American Mushroom Conference (NAMC) in Vancouver, but because of COVID, it didn’t work out that way. The NAMC in Canada was postponed, and eventually cancelled (https://www.mushroombusiness.com/news/namc-2022-vancouver-cancelled) and ISMS decided to bring its event online - and partially live via Ex Ordo Conference software.

    Dear colleagues in the mushroom industry; it is time to register for the ISMS congress.

    The next ISMS congress will be held from 14 till 17 September 2021. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic this time it will be an online event, although we would have preferred to make it a live event. However, as the statutes of ISMS demand that a congress is held every 3 to 5 years with the last one being in Amsterdam in 2016, a congress needed to be planned in 2021. Hence, an online version of the congress.
