 The Second RCA Appraisal: Soil, Water, and Related Resources on Nonfederal Land in the United States: Analysis of Condition and TrendsUnited States Department of Agriculture No 329987, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture Abstract: Excerpts from the report: This report describes the condition and trends of the soil and water resources and related resources on the nonfederal lands of the United States. Nonfederal lands are the 77 percent of the total surface area of the Nation owned by private citizens, by businesses and industries, and by States, counties, cities, and other units of nonfederal government. The United States Department of Agriculture prepared this report in response to the requirements of the Resources Conservation Act of 1977 (RCA). This is the second report of the continuing appraisal required by that act, succeeding the first one published in 1981. This report summarizes the results of many separate studies, inventories, evaluations, and analyses conducted by or for several USDA agencies over the past 5 years. This document describes resource use, condition, and trends.
