Status of Soil/Landform Mapping
A survey of the soils and landforms covering non-public lands throughout the region is currently being completed at 1:100 000 scale and is now being entered onto this website. A number of preliminary reports have been published as part of this survey – including ‘Major Agricultural Soils of the Maffra Region’ (Sargeant and Imhof, 2000).
