In many parts of the world, the soil varies significantly from place to place and these changes in soil types can have dramatic impacts for farmers and others aiming to utilize that land.
Read moreWhat is Land Capability Classification?
The Land Capability Classification (LCC) System is a global land evaluation ranking that groups soils based on their potential for agricultural and other uses. LCC can help determine if land is suitable for certain uses and whether there are risks for degradation.
Read moreIntro to Soil Color
Soil is a critical factor for land potential, productivity, and crop yields. Soil color can be a useful tool for correctly identifying your soil and can be an important indicator of soil health.
Read moreTaking the Guesswork Out of Soil Identification
