Soil conservation reports

Over the period 1966 to 1982, some of work of the Soil Conservation Branch (later the Soil and Water Conservation Branch) was published in Branch Reports and in soil survey or land description reports. The titles of the reports provide an insight into the key issues of the time - erosion control, research and extension programs, soil nutrients and fertilisers, salinity, irrigation, soil description and others, and also include overseas study undertaken by officers. After 1982 the Branch reports were replaced by the Department wide Technical Report series. Most of the reports are held in the University of Adelaide libraries at the Waite and Roseworthy.
