What does Emphasis on Soil and Water Entail?

The specialty of Soil and Water is extremely important to agriculture. It is the basis for both plant and animal growth.The specialty is based upon the planning and management for soil and water systems.           

This includes the study of wetlands, irrigation management, erosion control, water supply and storage, drainage control, and water quality. Soil and Water systems courses involve the application of subject matter acquired in the    prerequisite principals and professional support courses to real world situations.  In the solution of real world, agricultural-natural resources systems problems, it is necessary to draw on a broad range of experiences related to agriculture and natural resources sciences.  Systems courses give the student the opportunity to debate and consider their major from a wider perspective, and integrate disparate concepts within the agricultural and natural resources management fields. Students will gain hands on experience through the Universities’ facilities including the Waterman Agricultural and Natural Resources Laboratory.
