In-Depth Information
But this difficulty in mastering the terminology has come in handy as
a pretext for many to exempt themselves from minimal knowledge in
Soil Science. Can one reasonably do farming, study physical geography
and geomorphology, and build urban housing, airports or highways,
etc., without considering the soils?
Finally we hope that the youngest readers of this topic, educated
in the extraordinary and superb diversity of soils of the world and
the patrimonial wealth they represent, will become the direct actors
in a novel approach to the protection and utilization of the natural
environment.
