Abstract:<\/strong>
\nSoil is not only the integral part of agroecological system, but also the base for agricultural development. Due to locating in the tropics, soil in the Philippines is easier to be eroded by water. In order to set up a model colony, American authority launched soil survey in the Philippines in 1903. The Philippine nationalist government continued this program and finished in 1987. This presentation will address three questions as below from the perspective of agroecological history: Soil survey in the Philippines, soil erosion in the Philippines, and soil conservation in the Philippines.<\/p>\n
