About ASC 2022

The Asian Seed Congress is the most significant event on the Asia and Pacific seed industry calendar.  

Since its inauguration in 1994 in Chiang Mai, Thailand, the annual event has been hosted in numerous key cities in the region, including New Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Brisbane, Shanghai, Bali, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Ho Chi Minh City, Chiba, Seoul, Kobe, Macau, Kaohsiung, Manila, Pattaya, Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok. The exclusive event attracts between 1,200 and 1,700 delegates annually, including key executives, officials, legislators, and scientists who all share a common stake in the development, production, distribution, regulation and trade of quality seeds. The Asian Seed Congress is more than just a meeting of APSA members and industry stakeholders. Featuring technical sessions, host country eld and leisure tours, cultural programs and world-class entertainment and accommodations, the Asian Seed Congress facilitates a prime opportunity for stakeholders to get together in one place for a memorable and energetic week, in which delegates can network, grow their business, and get updated on the latest industry developments and technologies, so as to gain an edge in the most populous and lucrative region in the world. From India to China, Turkey to Australia, Kyrgyzstan to Sri Lanka, Philippines to Pakistan, Thailand to Japan – the people that matter the most in the movement of quality seed across international borders continue to make the Asian Seed Congress a fundamental itinerary on their calendars. 

The 27th Asian Seed Congress will be held at the Bangkok Convention Center in Bangkok, Thailand from the 14th to the 18th of November 2022. This Congress is co-organized by the Asia & Pacific Seed Alliance (APSA) and the Thai Seed Trade Association (THASTA) as the official National Organizing Committee.
