Abstract: Choosing an appropriate theme poses major questions for conference organisers-what are the critical issues of the day, do they lend themselves to a coherent format, are major issues currently being addressed by people with useful contributions to offer, will the theme attract the necessary delegates?After considerable deliberation, the Organising Committee for the Australian Rangeland Society's Seventh Biennial Conference held at Cobar from 5-8 October, 1992, chose "Australian rangelands in a changing environment".This theme reflected the dynamic, often turbulent, times confronting the graziers, scientists, bankers, farmers, conservationists and extension workers concerned with rangeland management.It highlighted the need for management to change effectively and rapidly when required, for "sustainable rangeland management" to become more than a hackneyed phrase.
