Soil health characteristics
Lynette Abbott from The University of Western Australia, places the spotlight on soil health, including its physical, chemical, biological and hydrological characteristics. Soil health encompasses its physical, chemical, biological, and hydrological characteristics. Inherent soil properties underpin how components of soil health combine to support productive agricultural or natural ecosystems.

Inherent soil properties underpin how components of soil health combine to support productive agricultural or natural ecosystems. The origin of the underlying parent rock materials and the extent to which they are weathered, influences naturally occurring nutrient cycling processes in soil. Hence, some soils have inherently high levels of nutrients available for plants, but others have more limited plant-available nutrient resources.
