Since I had not heard about this conference I thought I would circulate this email via the blogletter mailing list
All the best

Hi Nick!
As you no doubt know there is the international conference on walnuts in S-E China this coming June, and I wondered if you had heard of any New Zealanders who are thinking of attending since so far I have not heard of any. I am vaguely thinking of attending since it would obviously be something different to our usual meetings, and might have a bit of tax deductibility.
Valda Muller sent me a note from the Australian walnut industry and they are looking at a tour group although I have not heard back from them whether they would allow any Kiwi travellers as well.
Best wishes
