The soil resource affects all aspects of New Zealand life, and is recognised as a living substrate that supports growth and filters waste. The resource needs to be protected and nourished so that it will continue to look after us long into the future. The NewZealand Society of Soil Science (NZSSS) organised a conference with the conference theme “Soils & Society”. This encompassed the economic, environmental, social, and cultural aspects of soil science. Rotorua was chosen as the conference venue and is an ideal location due to the growing local emphasis on water quality stemming from soil management issues. The water quality of Rotorua Lakes has become one of the important national environmental issues in New Zealand. Local and central government agencies are looking for solutions to this problem. It was expected that conference delegates from a wide range of soil-related disciplines in New Zealand – including universities, research institutes, Government departments, analytical services, the fertiliser industry and regional councils, as well as representatives from agricultural, horticultural and forestry businesses – would look at water quality issues from different angles (soil management, waste management, farm nutrients, policy issues, etc.). In addition, the conference provided a forum for discussion of a wide range of current soil research topics. The conference was held in Rydges Hotel, Rotorua, from 27 to 30 November 2006. This is the first time ever that the New Zealand Society of Soil Science had organised the conference in a hotel, and to some extent, it helped to raise the profile of our Society. The conference organising committee was formed in mid 2005, to plan, organise and execute a memorable conference. The conference managers, Innovatek Ltd, played a key role in the running of the conference.
