Pacific Soils Portal
PSP development
A regional effort to collate and make available information, knowledge and advice relating to soils
The Pacific Soils Portal, launched in 2020, has been developed by Manaaki Whenua in collaboration with CSIRO Agriculture and Food, the Secretariat of the Pacific Communities Land Resources Division, and Pacific Island Countries and Territories Agriculture Departments. It brings together soil data, dating back to the 1960s, for six Pacific countries – Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Kiribati, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu.
