The International Commission of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering (www.cigr.org) held its World Congress for the first time in Canada (Québec City) on June 13-17, 2010. A total of 746 papers were presented by delegates from 46 different countries. Technical sessions were organized in all seven CIGR sections: Section I on land and water engineering, including EnviroWater 2010; Section II on buildings and environment; Section III on field machinery; Section IV on energy; Section V on ergonomics and systems engineering; Section VI on processing; and Section VII on information systems. In addition, the program included the 9th International Drainage Symposium sponsored by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, the 10th Annual Meeting of the American Ecological Engineering Society, the 8th World Congress on Computers in Agriculture, a Nanotechnology Symposium and an Aquacultural Engineering program.
