Annual Maluma Symposium

Although this symposium was initially held solely as an information session to farmers, it has developed into a cross-platform information and networking symposium.

The main aim is to stimulate thought into what the modern agriculture environment brings about and, what farmers and other intermediaries can do to improve on the final product delivered to the consumer.

What to expect

Allesbeste symposium 2023 will be held on 16 & 17 August. Make sure you don't miss it!

The Maluma symposium is open for all avocado farmers - please sign up for the newsletter to receive your invitation and more information about the symposium. Invitations will be sent out around May 2023, and the provisional program will be release around June 2023.

Day 1 (16 August 2023) will consist of discussions on various relevant topics (presentations) and workshops in the form of open discussions from a panel as well as attendees.

On day 2 (17 August 2023) we will head into the orchards and discuss different orchard practices and production techniques.

13 & 14 March 2019 - 9th annual Maluma symposium

The day was a big success and was attended by a record-breaking number of 471 delegates. Thank you for everyone's contribution to making this day what it was. The Maluma symposium continually grows in guests as well as making it possible for guests that could not attend the Maluma symposium. Maluma symposium 2019 was once again live streamed on YouTube, and the recordings of the two days are available on YouTube to view afterwards as well.

This year's Maluma day took an exciting turn with an auction of Maluma avo trees, with the proceeds donated to charities. Two batches of 250 trees were auctioned off at an astonishing R 1120.00 per tree (whereas the normal Maluma tree price at that time was R 94.00).
