Soil Resource Assessment

Soil Resource Assessment involves evaluating the quality, capacity, and characteristics of soil in a specific area to determine how suitable it is for uses like agriculture, construction, or conservation. It considers factors such as soil type, fertility, texture, structure, drainage, and potential for erosion. This assessment helps land planners, farmers, and environmentalists make informed decisions to sustainably manage land, protect ecosystems, and optimize land use while minimizing negative impacts. Essentially, it provides a detailed understanding of soil health and characteristics to support responsible land management.
