How does the Soils layer work?

Discover soil composition and productivity using Acres.

  1. Start by making a Parcel or FSA selection on the map.
  2. On the left navigation bar Click Insights > Soils.
    1. A new panel will appear showing the Average Soil Score and a table that breaks down the different soil types with more detailed information for your selection.
    2. When you hover your mouse over a row in the table, the matching colored area in your selection will be highlighted. This works the other way around too - hovering over the colored area will highlight the corresponding row in the table.

The selections field at the top of the panel will allow you to filter results for multiple selections.

For states lacking a specific productivity index, NCCPI (National Commodity Crop Productivity Index) is used.
