Click a field on the map and its soil properties pull automatically from USDA's SSURGO survey — the same soil database NRCS uses. Expand Soil details for the full profile, survey area, and map-unit key.
Pick a field on the map or search above — its soil and field readiness auto-derive from SSURGO once you do.
Willamette silt loam is moderately suited to receive biochar — moderate headroom for biochar to improve its dynamic properties. No use-invariant site constraints flagged.
Disables ponding / depth-to-water-table — they don't apply on tiled ground.

Ratings come from the NRCS Dynamic Soil Properties Response model. Thresholds map to ARS's published criteria; the values shown are SSURGO-derived. This alpha weights factors equally — ARS's published ×0.15 coefficients, the slope × O-horizon response surface, and a depth-to-water-table input arrive in the build. Prototype — figures are mock.
Pick what you want this field to do, in plain terms. Each goal maps to the soil-response factors the science scores against — choose as many as apply, and the suitability scores weight toward them.
Choose one or two biochars from the curated catalog to weigh side by side. Each lists its lab specs — feedstock, highest treatment temperature (HTT), fixed carbon, and surface area — the properties that drive performance.
Field assessments are advisory; producers should consult NRCS conservationists before application.
