Great few days at the @SoilScienceAust conference! Great to reconnect with colleagues and listen to some world class science. Feeling inspired about the future of #soilscience in Australia.
Thanks also to @CostasGarden for coming along and sharing the enthusiasm for #SOIL!
TEAM SA TAKES OUT 1st PLACE in the TEAM CATEGORY! We are so proud of our team and their growth with soil classification and teamwork! We thank our amazing sponsors for proving the funds to get the team to Darwin: @GrainProducerSA@MJMCLAUS@adelaideshow@envir_scientist@IDigSoil
The Hon Penny Wensley @SoilsAdvocate and Patron of Soil Science Australia giving the opening address at the @SoilScienceAust 2023 Conference in Darwin. Always a champion of soils and those who work with them. Thank you Penny for your ongoing advocacy for #soils in Australia
Huge few days for our teams! What a great experience this is for students and ECR’s to upskill and further their soil science knowledge. Thanks to @SoilScienceAust for organizing such an incredible event for students from across Australia! #soiljudgingau
Soil Science Australia in partnership with @DAFFgov has launched a new national accreditation for soil professionals. The Registered Soil Practitioner (RSP) – Soil Management Accreditation will standardise soil expertise across Australia. bit.ly/3P18Iyj#soil
Been affected by high water levels? Want to chat to some of SA’s best soil scientists on what to look out for in coming seasons with your soil condition and soil tests?
Join us for our first event if 2023! If you’re a landholder in the region - it’s free!

Fancy day with fancy robes to make it all official! #PhDone
Thanks again to the best supervisor ever @envir_scientist for leading a wonderful research group full of proper mentorship, inspiration, great science and kindness! Forever grateful for your support 🙌
The Coorong is a special and unique estuary at the end of Australia's largest river system, in our new study we document how reduced flushing has led to a long term decline in its water quality and sediment health @UofA_SET@goyderinstitute @SAEnvirWater adelaide.edu.au/newsroom/new…
What a great week and a privilege to be part of a fabulous organizing committee for #IASSC23. 3 days of lectures and 3 field trips sharing acid sulfate soil knowledge between a wonderful community of incredible scientists working across academia, government and consulting. 🙌
That’s a wrap for #IASSC23! We thank all the delegates for so generously sharing their knowledge & making the conference so collaborative and enjoyable! We very much enjoyed sharing acid sulfate sites around SA over the 3 field trips and can’t wait for the next IASSC in 2025!
Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.
Looking forward to hearing from growers on the EP about acidity and its management, and sharing some of my PhD research about lime movement as well as work done in the #acidsoilssa project to help tackle #soilacidity in #agriculture
Worried about acidity affecting your crops and pastures? Have you pH mapped, limed your soil, and STILL unsure if that is enough? Come along a hear from Ruby(AdelaideUni)& Brett(SARDI) to discuss the latest soil acidity research for EP.
