Description

This is the first soil survey report to deal solely with an area that is irrigated or proposed for irrigation development. The three soil maps that form part of this report show the kind and location of the various soil and topography types. The report describes the soil types, gives analytical data of representative profiles, and gives the average rating of each soil type. Three appendices cover problems related to land levelling, to salinity and drainage, and to fertility and management.
