Land resource surveys are our core activity. We maintain a land resource database of the Province for better agriculture production to ensure food security. The other key functions are as under:
- Identification of soil series at district level
- Reconnaissance soil surveys for inventory and planning of land resources
- Semi-detailed and detailed soil surveys for land use management on request for better agriculture production
- Thematic mapping (e.g. land use, vegetation, soil etc.)
- Special purpose mapping (suitability maps)
- Analysis of physico-chemical properties of soils
- Collection of different soil profiles (monolith) for in-house briefing about different types of soils and their management
