- Abstract
We detail the soil definition in relation to the soil forming processes. We also emphasized and exemplified environmental and agricultural importance of the soil as an essential system with multifunctionality for cycling of nutrients, micro-biodiversity habitat, carbon stock, and as a supplier of food and other crucial environmental services for maintenance of the planet's biodiversity. Finally, the current strategies and prospects to study the soil in Mexico are discussed, since it is a natural nonrenewable resource and key to our environmental and food safety.
