The National Soil Survey Center sponsored the Soil Science Institute at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas, June 6-24, 2011. The intensive 3 week course was designed as a mid-career training session allowing career soil scientists to learn of new technological advances in soil science as well as being refreshed in soil chemistry, soil micromorphology, soil physics, statistics, soil fertility and soil mineralogy. This year the Institute had 15 NRCS soil scientists and 1 BLM environmental scientist in attendance. Dr. Mickey Ransom, Professor of Soil Science at Kansas State University, coordinated the Institute.
