Soil health and land use - Soil health tests within target range, by land use, 2009-13
New Zealand's Environment Reporting Series: The Ministry for the Environment and Statistics New Zealand
UPDATED 21/04/2017 (See "Land domain updates" page for details; http://www.stats.govt.nz/browse_for_stats/environment/environmental-reporting-series/environmental-indicators/Home/Land/land-domain-updates.aspx). Different land uses put pressure on the land environment and can result in changes to soil health. Healthy soil supports the productivity of agriculture and forestry, and filters water to help prevent waterways becoming contaminated. Soils are considered healthy if they fall within the target ranges for the indicators of acidity, fertility, organic reserves, and physical status. This dataset relates to the "Soil health and land use" measure on the Environmental Indicators, Te taiao Aotearoa website.
