Affordable rapid field based soil tests
An affordable field-based tool kit will be developed to obtain real-time analytical information about the soil chemical properties. Find out more about the design of 3D printed devices for the colourimetric determination of soil chemical properties.
Presented by Soil CRC Project Leader Dr Liang Wang from the University of Newcastle, Reuben Mah Han Yang and Fernando Maya Alejandro both from the University of Tasmania.
Date: Tuesday 24 November 11am – 11:45am AEDT

Soil biology: under the microscope
There is recognition amongst farmers and scientists alike that soil biology is an important component in healthy soil. But selecting what to measure is confounding and analysing what the data really mean can be even more so. The presentation will put under the microscope some of the key methods for measuring ‘who’s there’ and ‘what are they doing.’ The methodologies are being applied to Soil CRC field trials to help us understand changes to soil biological properties and how these may more broadly benefit soil health.
Presented by Soil CRC Program Leader Dr Lukas Van Zwieten from NSW Department of Primary Industries.
Date: Tuesday 8 December 12pm – 1pm AEDT
