Soils are integral to agricultural productivity, biodiversity, ecosystem function and the maintenance of ecosystem services. However, soil ecosystem research depends on foundational biological knowledge that is often missing. Our vision is to create a platform for researchers from all soil related disciplines to discuss, collaborate, build capacity and expand on the soil knowledge of South Africa. Ultimately the broader objective of SERG is to contribute towards creating an awareness regarding soil as a vital natural resource and global asset.
