SOIL BIOLOGY WORKSHOP PROGRAM

One day, two day and 12 day workshops on soil biology are run by the Centre for Land Rehabilitation at The University of Western Australia. The workshops introduce complex soil biological processes, emphasise the interrelationships between organisms and investigate what soil organisms look like, what they do and what kind of habitat they like to live in. This provides the context for considering the effects of land management practices on biological processes and for selecting farming or horticulture practices that capture the benefits of soil organisms in soil.

The 12 day workshop is run over six weekends spread throughout the year and includes a major experiment and analyses of soil and plants. The one day workshops in country areas are arranged by request to Professor Lyn Abbott through The University of Western Australia.
