Extractions: Annual Report Committee Code No. Date of preparation: 12 September 2002 Name of Society Activity: Report Status: This is a final report for 2002 General Report: The committee met at the ASA meetings in Charlotte, North Carolina. A subcommittee consisting of Myra Peak, Ted Zobeck, and Janis Boettinger was given the charge to develop a survey to assess training programs for practicing soil scientist. This survey was completed in June and sent to the ASA office in Madison for final approval before being disseminated to practicing professionals in the American Society of Agronomy as well as non-members including other practitioners in closely related fields. A copy of the survey is attached to this document. Survey results were to be obtained by August 15. We received 1040 responses to the survey. Unfinished Business: Results will be analyzed and presented to the board at the 2003 meeting in Denver Colorado. Members of the Society Activity: The committee for S587, "Training and Continuing Education for Soil Scientist" includes the following members: Jeff Wolt Dow AgroSciences Myra Peak Peak Environmental Robert Beck Pioneer HiBred Lenore Vasilas EPA Janis Boettinger Utah State University Maurice Mausbach USDA NRCS Andrea Engebreston Madison, Wisconsin

Extractions: Ladies and Gentlemen, World Food Day commemorates the founding of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in Quebec City, Canada, on 16th October 1945, as the world faced the spectre of hunger and starvation at the end of the Second World War. FAO is charged with a very special and specific task - to ensure freedom from hunger for all mankind. The right of everyone to have access to safe and nutritious food is affirmed in the opening statement of the Rome Declaration of the 1996 World Food Summit. This right was confirmed during the World Food Summit: five years later , held in Rome four months ago. Statistics suggest that fewer people are undernourished today than a few years ago. However, although headway has been made and some striking success stories exist in individual countries and communities, much remains to be done. Just yesterday FAO published new information in its annual report on the State of Food Insecurity in the World , which shows that the number of undernourished people in the developing countries has been reduced by just 2.5 million people per year since the 1996 World Food Summit benchmark period of 1990-92. If we continue like this, it means that the total reduction of the number of hungry people in the world by 2015 will amount to less than 10 percent. That is a far cry from the 50 percent reduction upon which leaders from 186 countries and the European Community that met in Rome at the Summit in 1996 agreed.

Appearances of lush bounty are deceiving. When wet, these soils become too heavy and sticky to walk through, leave alone plow. staff to seek a solution. ICRISAT scientist Michael Klaij and partners worked with the farmers to improve drainage and erosion, and halt the damaging gullies that crept into their fields. In May 1999 they built two drop structures with heavy stones, and not a minute too soon. The 1999 rains exceeded levels expected only once in 20 or 30 years, but this time their fields were safe. Only a hundred meters from where they had worked the rains caused a 2 m deep 3 m wide gully to advance 12 m, which amounted to over 70 t of lost soil! The farmers of Chefe Donsa are convinced that they must continue to work together to preserve their land.

http://www.ecopartners.nl/burobiopt/geninf.html

Extractions: buro biopt is a private (indepedent) research and consultancy agency in the biological and ecological field and started on the initiative of Henk Mosterdijk. His broad experience in these areas of expertise and his enthusiasm for and involvement in carrying out biological and ecological research do result in a excellent and well thought-out product. Projects in order to assess the biological and ecological quality of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and to determine the effects of changes in the environment on the biocenosis (macrophyte and macroinvertebrate communities) are core activities. The name "biopt" has been derived from the medical term biopsy which means microscopical research on animal and human tissue. In terms of biological or ecological research, an impression can be gained of a process in or of the quality (of a part) of the ecosystem by taking a sample (the V-shaped piece in our logo = a biopt or sample).
