Yesterday’s post I began my reflections about soils in Canada, ending with some preliminary findings from soilsofcanada.ca<\/a>. Today I’ll follow up with another important soil type in Canada:<\/p>\n

Luvisols<\/strong>: Like the podzols (mentioned in yesterday’s post<\/a>), these are forest soils. Unlike the podzols, however, the luvisols sit atop loam or clay-featured strata. Often, but not always, luvisols are neutral or alkaline.<\/p>\n

Luvisols are commonly found in regions that are known for having good soil. The peninsula around Toronto is one example; the Peace River region is another. Luvisols also lie along the St John River, with a patch in the Annapolis Valley as well.<\/p>\n

I’ll be sharing more about soil types in Canada in upcoming posts:)<\/p>\n
