Soil degradation and water pollution are of significant concern to the agricultural community. An increasing amount of activity in Canada has been directed in the last 5 years towards these topics as well as towards soil and water improvement, conservation and reclamation. A computerized inventory has been   
developed by the Resources and Environment Section in order to identify and describe the various activities that are currently underway. This guide outlines the data contained in this inventory, its organization and use.
