The Almond Board of Australia is organising two overseas study tours and is inviting representatives from the almond industry to submit Expression of Interest to participate.
The first study tour is to Spain and Portugal in May 2025, followed by a visit to California in May 2026.
The project, Almond industry international study tours (AL23004) is a strategic levy investment under the Hort Innovation Almond Fund.

Working predominantly on the Hort Innovation almond Integrated Pest Management project (AL22003), Sam will work closely with David Madge, Senior Research Scientist – Insect Ecology and Management of Orchard Pests, in undertaking field trials, lab testing, insect identifications and extension, across all aspects of the project, with a focus on almond carpophilus beetle and carob moth.
