Mission
TO PROMOTE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATURE AND USE OF INTENSIVE ORCHARD SYSTEMS THROUGH RESEARCH,EDUCATION, AND DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION.
Program accomplishments
- One of the main goals of the IFTA is to educate the membership on growing practices throughout the world. This was accomplished by holding an annual meeting in February each year with about 350 people.
- Another main focus of the IFTA is to provide financial support to those that are conducting research on topics of value to the IFTA membership. The amount that the board contributes to the foundation varies from year to year and comes from contributions from the membership and from excess funds that the IFTA may have received in a given year.
