Consider looking for related projects for help or ask at the Teahouse.
If you are not currently a project participant and wish to help you may still participate in the project. This status should be changed if collaborative activity resumes.

WikiProject Soil is a project to organize and improve articles related to soil.

Articles maintained by this WikiProject are grouped in Category:WikiProject Soil by using the {{WikiProject Soil}} template.

Soil is defined as:

The "material that forms at the interface of the atmosphere and the lithosphere which is capable of supporting plant growth" (White 1997).
A critically important component of the earth's biosphere maintaining local, regional, and world-wide environmental quality (Doran & Parkin, 1994).
The "different forms of earth on the surface of the rocks, formed by the breaking down or weathering of rocks."
A "natural body composed of solids (minerals and organic matter), liquid, and gases that occurs on the land surface, occupies space, and is characterized by one or both of the following: horizons, or layers, that are distinguishable from the initial material as a result of additions, losses, transfers, and transformations of energy and matter or the ability to support rooted plants in a natural environment."
The granular material on the surface of other celestial bodies. Lunar soil and Martian soil are terms in general use that fit within the context of this project.
