Mr. Rob De Hayr is the Pillar 5 Chair for the Pacific region of the Regional Soil Laboratory Network for the Pacific (SPACNET). The summary discusses: 1) SPACNET and the Australasian Soil & Plant Analysis Council (ASPAC) were previous networks that supported soil laboratories in the region but ASPAC is now the active network. 2) ASPAC works to promote excellence in soil and plant analysis through training, research, and sharing best practices. It also coordinates proficiency testing and publishing guidance documents. 3) Reforming SPACNET is an option being considered to better support Pacific region laboratories, which could work with ASPAC for quality assurance/control.
