The Soil Science
Department is a partner with soil survey staff of the Natural Resources
Conservation Service, assigned to Major Land Resource Area 56,
the
Red River Valley of the North. Soil surveys have been completed for
all the counties in the valley, and out of this office the modernization
of these surveys is being coordinated.
The staff is able to provide soil information in the form of maps
and legends for the counties in MLRA 56, or direct you to other
personnel
if unable to fulfill your request. They are also available for instruction
or demonstration in soil-related topics for schools and other
community
groups.
