Iconic Soils of NSW

Have you ever thought about iconic soils ?

We have iconic vegetation – the waratah. We have iconic fauna – the lyrebird. But what about iconic soils?

The Iconic Soils of NSW project was designed to celebrate World Soil Day, the 5th of December, in 2015 the International Year of Soils

We look at the distribution, identifying characteristics, economic, environmental and social contributions of iconic soil types.  The list is diverse, and so far is incomplete.  We hope to add to this page over time.
