Howdy! This issue of the BAEN newsletter highlights several international activities led by our faculty and students. This is just another indicator that BAEN is making a difference worldwide. Read about South Africa’s interest in irradiation treatment of mangoes, the Mexico exchange program, and why we had visitors from India and Brazil. This issue also tells you about the outstanding work done by BAEN faculty, both from the teaching and research standpoint. As usual, our students are making the news and continue being an essential component of the BAEN family. Many have graduated and gone to pursue new adventures. We wish them the best! I hope you enjoy this issue and keep in touch.
