Abstract
With most of the basic discoveries and applications of science made by mankind applicable to agriculture a challenge is presented to soil scientists to improve their pedagogy and research. Present-day soil scientists, tenaciously linked with those in the disciplines of agronomy and crop sciences, have become intellectually isolated from geologists, hydrologists, engineers and ecologists who deal with soils for purposes other than crop production. Localized achievements of greater crop production come at the expense of our global environment. Ample opportunity based primarily upon regionalized variable analyses exists to improve the management potential of our natural resources on global, regional and local scales of space and time. Six such opportunities or frontiers are elucidated.
