AboutPROCINORTE’s Tropical and Subtropical Task Force was created in 2000-2001 to improve links between Mexico, Canada and the United States for research issues related to quality, safety and traceability of tropical and subtropical fruits. As part of PROCINORTE, our organization has the objective of facilitating the exchange of experiences, information and training through the building of linkages among public and private country institutions in the North American region, and between the major research and technology transfer actors in the region, hemisphere and the world.
