The NSSI has five objectives: To provide a coordinating role for investigative studies of soil, and water quality, as it relates to the resource use of land throughout the Province. To evaluate and demonstrate various soil management practices which maintain long term soil and water quality. To provide assistance to the agricultural industry through education and extension programs. To plan, coordinate and develop projects which will assist the development and adoption of approved soil and water management practices at the farm level. To receive and administer funds in support of special projects and services. The complete Terms of Reference for the Nova Scotia Soils Institute is available on this site. It meets these objectives by: providing annual reports to the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries outlining it activities during the fiscal year; and by sponsoring

22. Earthworm Ecology And Sustaining Agriculture
    A paper from the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems, University of California, exploring the effects of earthworms in farmed soils.  
    http://www.sarep.ucdavis.edu/worms/werner.htm
    
    Extractions: Earthworms can play a variety of important roles in agroecosystems. Their feeding and burrowing activities incorporate organic residues and amendments into the soil, enhancing decomposition, humus formation, nutrient cycling, and soil structural development (Mackay and Kladivko, 1985; Kladivko et al., 1986). Earthworm burrows persist as macropores which provide low resistance channels for root growth, water infiltration, and gas exchange (Kladivko and Timmenga, 1990; Zachmann and Linden, 1989). Quality, quantity and placement of organic matter is a main determinant of earthworm abundance and activity in agricultural soils (Edwards, 1983; Lofs-Holmin, 1983), as are disturbances of the soil by tillage, cultivation, and the use of pesticides (Doran and Werner, 1990). This article will review recent information on earthworms as it relates to the sustainability of agriculture. For further information, see Lee (1985) or Satchell (1983).

    Extractions: The National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory (NSERL) of the United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service is the focal point for the U.S. Government's national research program in soil erosion by water. This modern facility houses over twenty scientists and support staff , and is equipped with a large indoor hydraulics laboratory, portable rainfall simulators for field experimentation, as well as extensive computer equipment. Major program thrusts of the NSERL include fundamental erosion process research, erosion control research, and delivery of improved erosion prediction technology. The mission of the NSERL is to develop the knowledge and technology needed by land users to conserve soil for future generations. The NSERL is located on the campus of Purdue University (building labeled SOIL in south center of map) in West Lafayette, Indiana Listen to an audio welcome to the NSERL, from former Director John M. Laflen.

    Extractions: Fertilizer Use - Crop Production At least 16 essential plant nutrients are required for growth. An insufficient supply of any or more of these nutrients can have a detrimental effect on plant growth and, ultimately, crop yields. All but three of these nutrients (carbon, hydrogen and oxygen) are derived from the soil. Four nutrients - nitrogen, phosphorus and to a lessor degree, potassium and sulphur - are likely to be of concern for Manitoba crop production.
