Soil Management Guides for Sustainable Agriculture

These booklets were prepared by the former Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in 1990 as part of a former National Soil Conservation Program (NSCP) funded project. The booklets aim to provide a basic understanding of aspects of soil structure, monitoring & managing acid soils and dryland salinity; and form part of a package that included supporting videos.
