Canada Land Inventory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canada Land Inventory is a survey of soil capability performed in the farming areas of Canada. The survey ranks soil on a scale of 1 to 7, with Class 1 soil being prime agricultural soil and Class 7 having no capability for agricultural activities. The survey also provides sub-classes which specify the limitations of the soil (for example, excessive water, adverse climate, stoniness). The results are mapped on 1:250,000 NTS grids.
