Woodland to Host 2025 Salinas Biological Summit

Another major agricultural industry event arrives here in Woodland this month, continuing our national leadership in the food and ag economy.

Following FIRA USA's decision to host North America's premier agricultural robotics event in Woodland last fall, the 2025 Salinas Biological Summit is doing the same after two successful summits in the event's eponymous Salinas.

From June 24 to 25, the 2025 Biological Summit will arrive at the Yolo County Fairgrounds. This venue will allow the gathering to "build on and enhance the Summit Program to deliver more opportunity to everyone attending the event; partners, exhibitors and delegates," according to an event press release. The City of Woodland thanks the Woodland Hoteliers Group and VisitWoodland for helping coordinate and sponsor event logistics and accommodations.

The two-day event will feature keynote speakers, plenary sessions, and targeted panel discussions. The Summit will host an exhibition of biological solutions and provide a unique platform for growers to meet and engage with peers from around the world. With several international delegations confirmed, this event will provide growers an opportunity to understand international best practices.

In addition, the 2025 event will feature the Summit's first-ever startup event focused entirely on emerging companies in the biocontrol sector, including real-time demonstrations of biological solutions' application in the field. These new features dovetail with AgStart's continued leadership in the food, ag, and health innovation space. The Lab@AgStart, located in Downtown Woodland, is one of the central valley's largest wet lab and coworking facilities, helping startup entrepreneurs conduct bench-level commercialization of their innovations to solve pressing global needs.

As demand for 'less chemistry, more biologicals' accelerates, the need to provide growers with tools to develop new integrated pest management programs, as well as meet the increasing calls from regulatory bodies, is critical. Woodland is proud to host the 2025 Summit, a key event as growers and the broader agricultural inputs economy work to build the food and ag system of the future.
