GAEZ Soil and terrain suitability

Soil and terrain suitability assessment involves analyzing soil properties (such as texture, depth, and fertility) and terrain characteristics (like slope and elevation) to determine their impact on agricultural productivity. This evaluation identifies constraints and opportunities for crop cultivation by examining how soil and terrain attributes affect water availability, root development, and general plant growth. The assessment helps guide decisions about the best land use practices to optimize agricultural yield while minimizing environmental degradation.
