What is Soil Taxonomy

The concept of soils as natural bodies was first developed by Russian soil scientist V.V Dokuchaev and his associates when they noted the relationship p amongst climate, vegetation and soil characteristics in 1883.  After a long gap of many years, soil survey staff of the U.S. Department of Agriculture in cooperation with soil scientists in other countries developed a new comprehensive system of soil classification based on soil properties.  This soil classification system used by many countries is called Soil Taxonomy originally published in 1975 by the soil survey staff. In India also we have adopted the same classification system.
