Global Conference on Sandy Soils

The Global Conference on Sandy Soils will be held in Perth, Western Australia, July 21-24, 2025. With approximately 900 million hectares of sandy soils worldwide, particularly in arid or semi-arid regions, it is crucial to focus on the management and fertility of sands. We aim to address the unique challenges and opportunities associated with sandy soils, showcasing some of the latest multi-disciplinary research and practices that are improving the sustainability and productivity of sands. The conference will provide a platform for researchers, scientists, policymakers, and industry experts to share insights, present cutting-edge research, and discuss innovative strategies for managing sandy soils effectively. This will be a truly global event, leveraging the expertise of international experts, with an opportunity to interact with a diverse cohort of Australian contributors and to visit relevant field-based locations to deepen our understanding of the challenges and opportunities of sandy landscapes.
