Precision Conservation

I just got my latest edition of Journal of Soil and Water Conservation.  The issue features "Recent Advances in Precision Conservation."  The idea of precision conservation is not a new one.  The father of soil conservation, Hugh Hammond Bennett invented the Land Capability Classification System in order to show how each acre of land has a limitations for particular uses.  Precision Conservation follows in the footsteps of Dr. Bennett's work.  He would be proud to see that his ideas live on and are still being refined by modern ideas and technology.
