  • Appendix D Soil Series Descriptions
    Appendix D Soil Series Descriptions Soil Series Descriptions Soil Orders Mollisols — This order covers a considerable land area of western and southern Minnesota and is the basis for the state's productive agricultural base. The formative syllable, oll, is derived from the Latin word mollis, or soft. Its most distinguishing feature is a thick, dark-colored surface layer that is high in nutrients. It occurs throughout the former prairie areas of Minnesota. The Latin term for soft in its name is descriptive in that most of these soils usually have a rather loose, low-density surface. Three suborders of mollisols occur in Minnesota: Aquolls, Udolls, and Ustolls. Alfisols — This order covers a large land area in Minnesota, part of which is now cultivated and part forested. Alf is the formative element and is coined from a soil term, pedalfer. Pedalfers were identified in the 1930s as soils of the eastern part of the United States with an accumulation of aluminum and iron. The alf refers to the chemical symbols for aluminum (Al) and iron (Fe). Alfisols are primarily fertile soils of the forest, formed in loamy or clayey material. The surface layer of soil, usually light gray or brown, has less clay in it than does the subsoil. These soils are usually moist during the summer, although they may dry during occasional droughts. Two suborders of alfisols occur in Minnesota: Aqualfs and Udalfs. Histosols — The formative element in the name is ist and comes from the Greek word histos, which means tissue. This is an appropriate association because these soils are formed from plant remains in wet environments like marshes and bogs.

Difference between a PRO and an Association/Society: • PRO: Created by government via legislation to protect public interest. • Association/Society: Created by members to further member interests. • Example: • College of Physicians and Surgeons is a PRO (regulatory mandate; focus on public interest); • Alberta Medical Association is an association (focus on member’s interests); The Agrology Profession Act (APA; 2005) and the Agrology Profession Regulation (APR; 2007) established AIA as a PRO; no part of the APA or APR allows for association activities. Professional regulatory management is based on the premise that the best persons to regulate a profession are practitioners within that profession who understand what it means to be competent in that profession. Seven Pillars of Professional Regulation • Entrance Standards • Continuing Competence Program • Code of Ethics • Practice Standards • Practice Reviews • Errors and Omissions Insurance • Complaints Handling Protocol Agrology Profession Act The Institute’s role is defined in Section 3 of the Agrology Profession Act.

  • A Case Study Carried out in the Ashan Drainage Basin, Iran)
    European Journal of Environmental Sciences 99 ASSESSMENT OF SOIL EROSION ON HILLSLOPES (A CASE STUDY CARRIED OUT IN THE ASHAN DRAINAGE BASIN, IRAN) H. SADOUGH VANINI* and MOSTAFA AMINI Department of Physical Geography, Faculty of Earth Sciences, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The objective of this study is to determine the rate of soil erosion on slopes of differing steepness and its effects on agricultural land and pastures in the drainage basin around Ashan. Exogenous factors like water and wind and endogenous elements such as erodibility of the soil have key roles in erosion and the results of this study will help in the management of soil and soil conservation programs. Soil erosion in the drainage basin around Ashan has accelerated and because of this it is important to determine the erodibility of the soil. In this study, the soil on four different hill slopes was sampled and after drying, soil size distribution and soil texture and the organic content of forty samples, and the k-factor (erodibility) using the USLE equation, were determined. According to the results of the ANOVA test there are strong relationships between the variables, which is illustrated by box plots. The results indicate that erodibility is significantly (p < 0.05) associated with the type of land use and landforms. The highest levels of erosion were recorded on the back-slope and the least at the summit and on the toe-slope. Discriminant function analysis was used to determine the discriminatory power of the erodibility factor associated with the different uses of land and landform components.

  • Use of Agricultural Soil Maps in Making Soil Surveys
    108 USE OF AGRICULTURAL SOIL MAPS IN MAKING SOIL SURVEYS L. D HICKS, Chief Soils Engineer North Oil 'lina State Highway and Pubi Works Commission SYNOPSIS Soil surveys are made to obtain information relative to the type, extent of occurrence, and characteristics of the soils in a given area. The use of the pedological system of classification permits easy identification of the soils as to type, and knowledge of the characteristics of various soil types and previous experience with them can be utilized in planning and design. A large portion of many states has been surveyed by the Department of Agri• culture and maps are available showing the location of the various soil types. These maps may be used as guides in making soil surveys, and in many instances they contain all of the information desired. When agricultural soil maps are not available or when extreme accuracy is necessary, a soil survey must be made. The pedological system of classification can be used in making the survey by anyone with some knowledge of the system, assisted by a soil identification "key". This paper describes the use of agricultural soil maps by the North Carolina State Highway Department and a soil identification key used in making soil sur• veys IS included. The use of the key is described. The first soil surveys in the United suitability for various crops given.

Professor, Dept. of Geography Government Girls’ General Degree College, Kolkata -23 4/3/2020 1 INTRODUCTION ZONAL SOILS : Zonal soils are those soils formed along broad zones of the earth. They are very much in conformity with climate and natural vegetation such as Podzol, Chernozem and Laterite soils. They are mature soils i.e. have fully developed soil profiles with distinct horizons (A, B & C). They are very much in equilibrium with environmental conditions. INTRAZONAL SOILS : Intrazonal soils are developed within the zonal soils. Because of certain local factors the type of soil is different from zonal soils eg. Alkali soils, peat soils i.e. hydromorphic soils. Because of heavy deposition of salt, the soil has been different. AZONAL SOILS : Those soils which fail to develop mature soil profiles. These soils develop over flood plains, aeolian deserts, loessic areas, alluvial soils , sketletal soils at the foot of the mountains. They are immatured soils due to lack of time in their soil forming process. 4/3/2020 Dept. of Geography, GGGDC, Kolkata 2 According to Dokuchaev, the classification of soils is as follows Class A : Normal Soils (Zonal Soils ) ZONES SOILS 1. Boreal Tundra 2. Taiga Light Grey podzolised soils 3. Forest Steppe Grey & dark grey soils 4. Steppe Chernozem 5. Desert Steppe Chestnut & Brown Soil 6. Desert Zone Yellow soils and white soils. 7.
