Sandy soils cover approximately 900 million ha
worldwide, particularly in arid or semi-arid regions. There are extensive areas of sandy soils under cultivation, but the soil fertility is often low.
Sandy soils – as a group of soils – have received
limited research attention. With increasing global
pressure on land resources, marginal soils such as
sandy soils are taken into production or cultivated
more intensely. There is a need to quantify and understand the properties of sandy soils. This conference will bring together experts on sandy soils
from across the world.
