The soil characteristics are influenced to a limited extent by the topography, vegetation and parent rock.

Correctly executed the procedure allows for rapid and frequent assessment of soil characteristics with little or no equipment.

Many people think an agricultural production system relying on local weather, soil characteristics, and specific crops has to be studied locally.

There is some broad grouping, for example by age classes or soil characteristics or slope elevation.

The method requires considering soil characteristics and the loads applied to the surface.

Advantages of land spreading are the low treatment cost and the possibility that the approach could improve soil characteristics.

All of these soil characteristics have led to the use of slash and burn agriculture.

The subsequent recognition of high stroke incidence in areas with different soil characteristics led researchers to reject this hypothesis.

Only at these levels can the very wide range of soil characteristics be dealt with comprehensively.
