NANJING, China — From June 7 to 12, 2026, the 23rd World Congress of Soil Science (WCSS) is taking place in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. Jointly hosted by the International Union of Soil Sciences (IUSS) and the Soil Science Society of China (SSSC), this year's congress centers around the vital theme, "Soil and Our Common Future."
Marking the centennial anniversary of the IUSS, this landmark event represents the first time the prestigious congress has been hosted in China. The exhibition has drawn an international gathering of experts, researchers, and scholars from prominent universities, ecological institutions, and environmental research centers, alongside leading instrument manufacturers. Attendees are engaging in high-level academic discussions and technical exchanges focused on critical fronts such as soil health, arable land conservation, water and soil monitoring, and ecological sustainability.
As the authorized Chinese distributor for the American brand SEC and Germany's UGT, Dianjiang Group is participating across the entire spectrum of the congress's events, accompanying the technical teams from both manufacturers to support global knowledge exchange.
UGT: Deep-Rooted Innovation in Soil Hydrology and Eco-Environmental Monitoring
Headquartered in Germany, UGT has dedicated over three decades to the research and development of advanced instruments for soil hydrology and environmental monitoring. The company focuses tightly on specialized fields including soil water-salt movement, in-situ lysimeter observations, unsaturated hydraulic conductivity, soil infiltration, and particle size analysis.
UGT’s portfolio features iconic systems such as their automated soil lysimeter systems, the Ku-pF apparatus for measuring unsaturated hydraulic conductivity, the Sedimat series for soil particle size analysis, and specialized in-situ tensiometers. These solutions are widely applied in precision agricultural water-fertilizer management, groundwater recharge tracking, non-point source pollution tracing, and studies on soil evolution driven by climate change. Having achieved large-scale deployment at major long-term ecological research stations worldwide, UGT instruments have also successfully integrated into numerous Chinese research platforms, agricultural academies, and environmental research institutes, driven by Dianjiang Group's robust localized service infrastructure.
SEC: Precision Engineering for Physical and Chemical Soil Analysis
The US-based brand SEC specializes in high-precision testing equipment for soil physical and chemical parameters. SEC has built a formidable reputation in fields such as soil texture analysis, soil-water characteristic curve determination, and field-based in-situ infiltration monitoring.
Their core product line includes pressure plate extractors (soil water potential characteristic curve systems), the Guelph series of disk infiltrometers, and comprehensive soil texture analysis kits. Engineered strictly in accordance with international standard testing methods, SEC instruments seamlessly bridge the gap between high-throughput laboratory testing and rugged field fieldwork. They are uniquely optimized for diverse applications, including soil classification, arable land quality assessment, and contaminated site investigations, making SEC an essential standard component of soil science labs worldwide.
