About This Product
The kit supports teaching in geography, forensics, science and agriculture. Students describe and group the soils on the basis of characteristics such as appearance, texture and permeability, comparing samples that range from a sandy arenosol and a peat histosol to a clay gley soil and a chalk leptosol. The Soil Types is available for supply within India and for export to North Macedonia, Eritrea, Uganda, Nicaragua, Qatar and Turkey.
