Ten Great Reasons to Attend CropKing’s Conference

1. Meet other growers- Where else can you get the opportunity to meet so many people who have many of the same interests as you with regard to hydroponic growing? Wherever you are on the road to success, you will meet others who have been there before and who are willing to share with you or help you take the next step in Hydroponics.

2. Gain plenty of practical information- You might attend a session on how to: construct your greenhouse, market your product, use beneficials in the greenhouse or managing the environment. Whether you are a newbie or a pro, you will definitely get some nuts and bolts of knowledge that you can use to improve your hydroponic business.

3. Learn something- At one of our past conferences, one of our seasoned growers said to us, “Every year that I come, I think that I must know almost everything by now, but each conference I come away with at least one new, fresh idea and go back home excited about the hydroponic industry in general.”

4. Get energized- There is nothing more infectious than a large group of people all excited about the same thing. When you get together with other growers who are all passionate about growing, you’ll be more excited about returning to your greenhouse to try out some new concepts.

5. Learn about the newest research in the industry- Hear and see excerpts of the work being done by Robert Hansen and his team at the OARDC with NFT Lettuce and various feed rates and cultivar and fertilizer treatments.

6. Learn new marketing ideas for your crops- CropKing conferences attract all types of growers who have found and developed almost exotic marketing approaches. Some of them may grow for markets that you haven’t considered yet. You will come away with new, refreshing marketing ideas.

7. Improve your professional effectiveness- Schoolteachers, doctors, engineers and lawyers all need to attend continuing education courses to keep up with the developments in their fields. Our Hydroponic Growers Conference is an excellent way to continue your education and improve your knowledge in the field of Hydroponics.

8. Be inspired- If you come with an ear to listen, there will be speakers or growers who seem to be talking directly to you. Some have overcome great obstacles in order to succeed. It’s the rare grower that has not faced difficulties from time to time. They may be able to give you hope or encouragement or that little push that you need.

9. Meet educators, experienced growers and vendors- This is the ultimate payoff: Networking and meeting others in the industry; educators, growers and even vendors with new products.

10. Write off the trip and entry fees on your income tax as a business expense- Uncle Sam will give you a tax break for attending this conference!
