Highly qualified professionals should be freed from ‘‘the more routine, day-to-day aspects of solid survey” produ so they can concentrate on ‘forward planning, research and develop- ment, and extension” of the province’s agricultural land base, Olds College soil scien- ces instructor Bill Souster told the coun- —cil.. “maintaining and ex- panding the agricultural land base in Alberta."’ The college’s joined other briefs which called for a more detailed land in- ventory, but took the issue one step further in emphasizing the need for highly qualified professionals to con- duct research into soil classifications and for technologists to convey information to cers. The college has developed a new. “land resource technology program” but awaits provincial government approval and funding before it comes on stream, Souster said. Through this coarse’ “A shift in priorities and related funding would allow proper staffing and utilization of professionals and technologists,” Souster asserted. ‘‘This will result in an exponential increase in produc- tivity.” Souster presented the college’s official views Tuesday (Nov. 1) to the Environment Council’s ‘hearing in Olds on College i is naeeay A ite willingness and preparedness to play an expanded role in con- tributing to the larger endeavour of main- taining our most precious heritage, Alberta’s productive agricultural land base.” The college brief raises four main points: the need for updated and more detailed soil resource information INNISFAIL AUCTION MARKET SALES Mon., Nov. 14 10:30 a.m. SPECIAL CALF oo Wed., Nov. 16 10:30 a.m. SPECIAL YEARLING SALE SPECIAL YEARLING SALE PLUS BRED HEIFERS & COWS Mon., Nov. 21 10:30 a.m. PRE-CONDITIONED CALF SALE Followed by Regular Calf and Feeder Sale Wed., Nov. 23 10:30 a.m. and related research; the need for increased emphasis on the inter pretation and extension of this information; the chide a standard soil map, descriptive soils information, a capability map, and other interpretive maps The Gazette susceptibility, gravel deposits, acid soils, high lime soils, irrigation potential and ground water resour- need for a “clinical”, gsych as salinity, ces. on-farm and on-site, drainage, surficial The college's was one approach to diagnosing geology, erosion of about a dozen briefs resource technologists to provide the man- power support to deal Fall and Winter with these concerns and Courses for 1983-84 to contribute to higher The last few months Barley -Seminar overall productivity. we have been busy set- February 28 and 29, “We recognize that the present productive land base faces severe threats from two major degradation and exten sive misallocation of prime arable land to non-agricultural — “Furthermore, the. un- necessary permanent removal of millions of acres of prime agricultural. land for non-agricultural uses must be stopped.
