Recent surveys of soil nitrate—measured to a depth of 45 cm—in Prince Edward Island suggest this estimate may indeed be conservative for potato production in that province with values averaging over 60 kg N ha -1 . The implementation of 4R practices reduced RSN in potato production in PEI by as much as 30%.

The textbook provides supplementary materials that are specific to regions in Canada, or may be of specific interest beyond what might be considered introductory soil science material. Importantly, the textbook also is intended to introduce students to the Canadian System of Soil Classification.
