This investment is one of the largest for research and development focused on agriculture, environment, food and land in the UK. This approach is unique in the UK, as there is no equivalent research portfolio delivering multidisciplinary and, increasingly, interdisciplinary research at the national level. Connected to the SRP are the Scottish Centres of Expertise on climate, water and animal disease, whose remit focuses on areas of high policy relevance. These Centres draw upon the expertise of some our researchers and others from research and academic institutions across Scotland. There have
The current version includes our published soils mapping, so for the first time, the Institute’s published soils maps are fully available on a mobile device. You can get information on the soils by simply panning around or tapping on the screen The SIFSS (Soil Indicators for Scottish Soils) app has recently been updated to improve usability. Aimed at growers, farmers and land managers in Scotland, the app allows them to quickly identify soil type in their area.
