The 1992 National Resources Inventory (NRI) is the latest in a series of inventories conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service. It provides updated information on the status, condition, and trends of land, soil, water, and related resources on the Nation’s nonfederal land. This report presents national and state results from the 1992 NRI for selected data elements. Included in this report are statistics for land cover/use, changes in land cover/use, prime farmland, erosion estimates, earth cover, wetlands, and conservation treatment needs.
