To anticipate the kinds of challenges and problems that we may face, it is pertinent to examine the case of Taiwan, which is a relatively small island nation in area, but with a high density of population and which is rather highly developed, both agriculturally and industrially. As a result, the soils and those who manage them have encountered various challenges and problems. This case study of the way that these are being met by soil scientists and society in Taiwan can provide lessons for us all for the future. © 2014 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
