New York Soil Health

State-funded study provides soil health guidelines for New York agriculture

Healthy soils play a central role in supporting sustainable crop production, water quality and climate change mitigation. While quality standards have been developed to protect water and air, there hasn’t been enough documented information to develop similar parameters for maintaining soil health.

To fill that research gap, a team of soil scientists in Cornell University’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS), conducted a state-funded project to characterize soil health across New York state agricultural lands. Published in September 2020, the 51-page report, “Characterization of Soil Health in New York State,” establishes soil health guidelines that consider the effects of region, soil type and cropping system.
