At the urban soils contest, participants are required to shoot slope, determine the soil drainage, depth of restrictive features and depth of bedrock and determine the soil texture of the surface, subsoil and substratum soil. Participants are also required to know when and how to apply best management practices to the soil.

Congratulations to all who competed.
