The joint conference of the New Zealand Society of Soil Science and Soil Science Australia will be held in Queenstown in December.
The overarching theme of the conference is “Soil, a Balancing Act Down-under” and reflects the challenges we are facing in managing our soils to reach a careful balance between many, often competing, land-use, productivity and environmental aspirations.
A central question of the conference is “What is required from soil science and soil scientists, now and in the future, to enable society to achieve the balance?”
