Like we mentioned yesterday on the blog, this year’s BASF Agricultural Solutions Media Summit is using social media to share its panelists and speakers’ thoughts on sustainability and agriculture.
We’ll be following along on Twitter, where @BASFAgro has already started posting information. In addition, it put together a handy Twitter list of media in attendance:

This week, ag industry leaders and media will gather at the 2010 BASF Agricultural Solutions Media Summit in Chicago to discuss agriculture and sustainability.
On tap for the three-day event, held June 8-10:
- A moderated panel sharing sustainability insights from panelists who represent the agricultural value chain, including growers, industry stakeholders and food companies.
- Discussions with BASF senior global and U.S. agricultural leaders, including Dr. Stefan Marcinowski, a member of BASF’s board of executive directors; Markus Heldt, president of BASF Crop Protection; and Peter Eckes, president and CEO of BASF Plant Science.
- Breakout sessions addressing sustainability issues important in crop, plant science, pest control and turf and ornamental markets.
- Scientific models developed by BASF to measure sustainability.
- Discussions on differing industry and public perceptions of sustainability.
- Opportunities for one-on-one interactions throughout the program.
The Summit website also has speaker and panelist bios, an agenda and additional details.
We’re excited to keep up with updates from the @BASFAgro Twitter and YouTube accounts. Also, stay tuned for a Twitter list of media who will be at the summit, and keep an eye on the event hashtag #AgMsBASF.
