This page contains material related to the Soils4Africa field campaign. The material has been produced to aid enumerators to collect the 20,000 soil samples that will be analysed for a wide range of indicators, and make field observations regarding physical properties of the soil at the sampling points. All of this will eventually feed the continental-scale Soil Information System, the main output of the project
