HOW TO BECOME A SURVEYING OR MAPPING
TECHNICIAN
Learning to master the equipment is a big part of the training for
surveying and mapping technicians.
Surveying technicians usually need only a high school diploma.
However, mapping technicians often need formal education after high
school to study advances in technology such as GIS.
Surveying technicians generally need a high school diploma, but
some have postsecondary training in survey technology. Postsecondary
training is more common among mapping technicians. An associate’s
degree or bachelor’s degree in a relevant field, such as geomatics, is
beneficial for these workers.
High school students interested in working as a surveying or mapping
technician should take courses in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, drafting,
mechanical drawing, and computer science. Knowledge of these subjects
will help in finding a job and in advancing.
Important Qualities:
Decision-making skills. As assistants to surveyors and cartographers,
surveying technicians must be able to exercise some independent judgment
in the field because they may be working away from team members and
need to meet tight deadlines.
Listening skills. Surveying technicians work outdoors and must
communicate with party chiefs and other team members across distances.
Following spoken instructions from the party chief is crucial for saving time
and preventing errors.
Stamina. Surveying technicians usually work outdoors, often in
rugged terrain. Physical fitness is necessary to carry equipment and to stand
most of the day.
Teamwork. Survey and mapmaking technicians work as part of a
team, so they must be able to work well with other people.
Technical skills. Surveying and mapping technicians need to operate
specialized equipment. They must be precise and accurate in their work.

WATER
Water is the most common liquid on Earth. It covers about 71.4% of
the Earth. Pure water has no smell, taste, or color. Lakes, oceans, and rivers
are made of water. Rain is water that falls from clouds in the sky. If water
gets very cold, it freezes and becomes ice. Frozen rain can be ice or snow if
conditions permit. If water gets very hot, it boils and becomes steam. Water
is very important for life. However, some studies suggest that by 2025 more
than half of the people around the world will not have enough water.
Water is a fluid. Water is the only substance that exists in all three
aggregate states. When water freezes, its volume expands by about 9%.
Uses of water
Plants and animals (including people) must drink water to live. It
gives a medium for chemical reactions to take place, and is the main part of
blood. It keeps the body temperature the same by sweating from the skin.
Water helps blood carry nutrients from the stomach to all parts of the body
to keep the body alive. Water also helps the blood carry oxygen from the
lungs to the body. Saliva helps animals and people digest food. Water helps
make urine. Urine helps remove bad chemicals from the body. The human
body is 60–70% water.
Water is the main component of drinks like milk, juice, and wine.
Each type of drink also has other things that add flavor or nutrients, things
like sugar, fruit, and sometimes alcohol. Water that a person can drink is
called "potable" (or "drinking") water. The water in oceans is salt water, but
lakes and rivers usually have unsalted water. There is only about 3% fresh
water on earth, the rest is salt water.

WORK ENVIRONMENT FOR SURVEYING AND MAPPING
TECHNICIANS
Surveying technicians work wherever they are needed to help the
surveyors.
Most surveying and mapping technicians work for firms that provide
engineering, surveying, and mapping services on a contract basis. State and
local governments also employ these workers in highway and planning
departments.
11
Surveying technicians work outside extensively and can be exposed
to all types of weather. They often stand for long periods, walk considerable
distances, and may have to climb hills with heavy packs of instruments and
other equipment. Traveling is sometimes part of the job, and surveying
technicians may commute long distances, stay away from home overnight,
or temporarily relocate near a survey site.
Mapping technicians work primarily indoors on computers. However,
mapping technicians must sometimes conduct research by using resources
such as survey maps and legal documents to verify property lines and to
obtain information needed for mapping. This task may require traveling to
storage sites housing these legal documents, such as county courthouses or
lawyers’ offices.
Surveying and mapping technicians typically work full time but may
have longer hours during the summer, when weather and light conditions
are most suitable for fieldwork. Construction-related work may be limited
during times of harsh weather.

WATERWAY
A waterway is any navigable body of water. Waterways can include
rivers, lakes, seas, oceans, and canals. In order for a waterway to be
navigable, it must meet several criteria:
The waterway must be deep enough to allow the draft depth of the
vessels using it;
The waterway must be wide enough to allow passage for the beam
width of the vessels using it;
The waterway must be free of barriers to navigation such as
waterfalls and rapids, or have a way around them (such as canal locks and
boat lifts);
The current of the waterway must be mild enough to allow vessels to
make headway.
Vessels using waterways vary from small animal-drawn barges to
immense ocean tankers and ocean liners, such as cruise ships.
Canals.
Canals are artificial waterways that are constructed to provide a new
path of travel for vessels (as opposed to improving a natural waterway
along its current course). At one time, canals were built mostly for small
wooden barges drawn by horses or other draft animals. Today, major canals
12
are built to allow passage of large ocean-going vessels (see Ship canal) to
connect harbours with or create a shortcut between seas and existing
waterways, such as the Kiel Canal between the North Sea and the Baltic
Sea, which is the most heavily used canal worldwide.
Blueway.
A blueway or water trail is a water path or trail that is developed with
launch points, camping locations and points of interest for canoeists and
kayakers. Blueways are typically developed by state, county or local
municipalities to encourage family recreation, ecological education and
preservation of wildlife resources.

WHAT SURVEYING AND MAPPING TECHNICIANS DO
Surveying technicians assist surveyors in taking accurate
measurements outdoors.
Surveying and mapping technicians assist surveyors, cartographers,
and photogrammetrists. Together, they collect data and make maps of the
earth’s surface. Surveying technicians visit sites to take measurements of
the land. Mapping technicians use geographic data to create maps.
Duties
Surveying technicians typically do the following:
 Operate surveying instruments, such as electronic distancemeasuring equipment, to collect data on a location
 Visit sites to record survey measurements and other descriptive
data
 Search for previous survey points, such as old stone markers
 Set out stakes and marks to conduct the survey, and then retrieve
them
 Enter the data from surveying instruments into computers, either
in the field or in an office
Surveying technicians assist surveyors in the field on teams, known
as survey parties. Then, in the office, they help to process the data collected
in the field. A typical survey party consists of a party chief and one or more
surveying technicians and helpers. The party chief, either a surveyor or a
senior surveying technician, leads day-to-day work activities.
Mapping technicians typically do the following:
 Select needed information from relevant databases to create maps
14
 Produce maps showing boundaries, water locations, elevation,
and other features of the terrain
 Update maps to ensure accuracy
 Assist photogrammetrists by laying out aerial photographs in
sequence to identify areas not captured by aerial photography
Mapping technicians help cartographers and photogrammetrists
produce and upgrade maps. They do this work on computers, combining
data from different sources.

CANALS
Canals are man-made channels for water. There are two types of
canal:
Waterways: navigable transportation canals used for carrying ships
and boats shipping goods and conveying people, further subdivided into
two kinds:
Those connected to existing lakes, rivers, or oceans. Included are
inter-basin canals, such as the Suez Canal, Erie Canal, and the Panama
Canal.
Those connected in a city network: such as the Canal Grande and
others of Venice Italy; the gracht of Amsterdam, and the waterways of
Bangkok.
Aqueducts: water supply canals that are used for the conveyance and
delivery of potable water for human consumption, municipal uses, and
agriculture irrigation.
Canals are created in one of three ways, or a combination of the
three, depending on available water and available path:
Types of artificial waterways.
A canal can be created where no stream presently exists. Either the
body of the canal is dug or the sides of the canal are created by piling dirt,
stone, concrete, or other building materials. The water for the canal must be
provided from an external source like other streams or reservoirs. Examples
include canals that connect valleys over a higher body of land, like Canal
du Midi and Canal de Briare.
A stream can be canalized to make its navigable path more
predictable and easier to maneuver. Canalization modifies the stream to
more safely carry traffic by controlling the flow of the stream with
15
dredging, damming, and modifying its path. Examples include Basse Saône,
Canal de Mines de Fer de la Moselle, and Aisne River. Riparian zone
restoration may be required.
When a stream is too difficult to modify with canalization, a second
stream can be created next to the existing stream. This is called a lateral
canal. The existing stream usually acts as the water source and its banks
provide a path for the new body.

WHAT URBAN AND REGIONAL PLANNERS DO
Urban and regional planners develop plans and programs for the use
of land.
Urban and regional planners identify community needs and develop
short- and long-term plans to create, grow, or revitalize a community or
area. For example, planners may examine plans for proposed facilities, such
as schools, to ensure that these facilities will meet the needs of a changing
population.
As an area grows or changes, planners help communities manage the
related economic, social, and environmental issues, such as planning a new
park, sheltering the homeless, or making the region more attractive to
businesses.
When beginning a project, planners work with public officials,
community members, and other groups to identify community issues or
goals. Using research, data analysis, and collaboration with interest groups,
planners formulate strategies to address issues or meet goals.
They also may help carry out community plans, oversee projects, and
organize the work of the groups involved. Projects may range from a policy
recommendation for a specific initiative to a long-term, comprehensive area
plan.
Planners use a variety of tools and technology in their work,
including geographic information systems (GIS) tools that analyze and
manipulate data. GIS is used to integrate the data with electronic maps. For
example, planners may use GIS to overlay a land map with population
density indicators. They also use statistical software, visualization and
presentation programs, financial spreadsheets, and other database and
software programs.

RAIN
Rain is droplets of water falling from clouds in the sky that are bigger
than 0.5 mm. Droplets of water that are about 0.2mm to 0.5mm big are
called drizzle. Rain is a kind of precipitation. Precipitation is any kind of
water that falls from clouds in the sky, like rain, hail, sleet and snow. Rain is
part of the water cycle.
Convectional rain happens in places of the world that are hot and
wet. Sometimes, it also takes place in tropical deserts and inland areas
during summer, when temperatures are hot. During the day, the sun makes
the ground very hot. Air near the ground surface is heated by conduction.
The heated air expands, becoming less dense and rises in a strong upwards
air current. When the temperature of the rising air falls to the dew point,
water vapor shrinks into thick clouds and forms convection rain. Depending
on the temperature it may fall as sleet or snow.
Relief rain usually happens along coastal areas where a line of hills
runs along to the coast. When wet onshore wind from the sea meets a
mountain, hill or any other sort of barrier, it is forced to rise along the slope
and cools. When the air temperature falls to its dew point, water vapor
condenses to form clouds. When the clouds can no longer hold the water
droplets, relief rain begins to fall on the windward slope of the mountain.
On the leeward slope, air sinks, it is warmed and further dried by
compression. Therefore, the leeward slope is known as rain shadow. Moist
winds blow in from the sea and are forced to rise over the land. The air
cools and the water vapour condenses, forming rain drops. Relief rain is
also a very dense and cold mixture of precipitation.
Frontal rain is when a cold front meets a warm air front. The less
dense warm air rises and condenses forming clouds. These clouds get
heavier and it eventually rains. The cold air front tends to come from the
north west and the warm air front comes from the south west.
A Rainstorm is a sudden heavy fall of rain. It may cause floods on
land which is not much above the level of the sea for example, flat coastal
land and river basins. Too much water can make rivers overflow and cause
floods. Also, landslides may happen. This is bad news as people may
drown. For example, over 6 million people died just last year from
rainstorms.

WHAT ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS DO
Environmental engineers use the principles of engineering, soil
science, biology, and chemistry to develop solutions to environmental
problems. They are involved in efforts to improve recycling, waste disposal,
public health, and control of water and air pollution. They also address
global issues, such as safe drinking water, climate change, and
sustainability.
Environmental engineers typically do the following:
 Prepare, review, and update environmental investigation reports
 Design projects leading to environmental protection, such as
water reclamation facilities, air pollution control systems, and operations
that convert waste to energy
 Obtain, update, and maintain plans, permits, and standard
operating procedures
 Provide technical support for environmental remediation projects
and legal actions
 Analyze scientific data and do quality-control checks
 Monitor progress of environmental improvement programs
 Inspect industrial and municipal facilities and programs to ensure
compliance with environmental regulations
 Advise corporations and government agencies about procedures
for cleaning up contaminated sites
Environmental engineers conduct hazardous-waste management
studies in which they evaluate the significance of the hazard and advise on
treating and containing it. They also design municipal water supply and
industrial wastewater treatment systems and research the environmental
impact of proposed construction projects. Environmental engineers in
government develop regulations to prevent mishaps.
Some environmental engineers study ways to minimize the effects of
acid rain, global warming, automobile emissions, and ozone depletion.
They also collaborate with environmental scientists, planners, hazardous
waste technicians, engineers, and other specialists, such as experts in law
and business, to address environmental problems and sustainability. For
more information, see the job profiles on environmental scientists and
specialists, hazardous materials removal workers, lawyers, and urban and
regional planners.

RIVER
A river is a stream of water that flows through a "channel" (or
passage) in the surface of the ground. The passage where the river flows is
called the riverbed and the earth on each side is called a riverbank. A river
begins on high ground or in hills or mountains and flows down from the
high ground to the lower ground, because of gravity. A river begins as a
small stream and gets bigger, the farther that it flows.
The water in a river is called "fresh water". It comes from rain or
snow and it can usually be drunk safely, unless it has been polluted. The
water in a sea cannot be drunk safely because it is "salt water". Both people
and animals often live near rivers, because they need water to survive.
The beginning of a river
The start of a river is called its "source" or its "headwaters". The part
of the river that is near the source is called a "young" or "youthful river". A
young river is often in a V-shaped river bed, and flows quickly downhill
over stones, and around big rocks. Young rivers often have lots of small
waterfalls and rapids.
The source of a river may be a spring, often on a hill, mountain, or
another high place. A spring is water that flows out from under the ground.
The source of a river may be a lake where lots of water from small
streams gathers when it rains or snows.
A river may begin in mountains where there is snow. The melting
snow runs together to form a small stream that runs down the mountain. As
more little streams run in, the main stream gets bigger, until it forms a river.
Some rivers flow from hills where there is no snow, but lots of rain.
Some rivers only flow after there has been rain at the "headwaters".

LIFE
Evidences suggest that life on Earth has existed for about 3.7 billion
23
years. All known life forms share fundamental molecular mechanisms, and
based on these observations, theories on the origin of life attempt to find a
mechanism explaining the formation of a primordial single cell organism
from which all life originates. There are many different hypotheses
regarding the path that might have been taken from simple organic
molecules via pre-cellular life to protocells and metabolism.
Although there is no universal agreement on the definition of life,
scientists generally accept that the biological manifestation of life is
characterized by organization, metabolism, growth, adaptation, response to
stimuli and reproduction. Life may also be said to be simply the
characteristic state of organisms. In biology, the science of living
organisms, "life" is the condition which distinguishes active organisms from
inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, functional activity and
the continual change preceding death.
A diverse array of living organisms (life forms) can be found in the
biosphere on Earth, and properties common to these organisms—plants,
animals, fungi, protists, archaea, and bacteria—are a carbon- and waterbased cellular form with complex organization and heritable genetic
information. Living organisms undergo metabolism, maintain homeostasis,
possess a capacity to grow, respond to stimuli, reproduce and, through
natural selection, adapt to their environment in successive generations.
More complex living organisms can communicate through various means.

WATERWAY RESTORATION
Waterway restoration is the activity of restoring a canal or river,
including special features such as warehouse buildings, locks, boat lifts, and
boats. In the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States, the focus of
waterway restoration is on improving navigability, while in Australia the
term may also include improvements to water quality.
Due to competition from the railways and the narrow design of most
UK canals (which prevented the carriage of economically sized bulk loads),
large parts of the UK's canal system were abandoned in the late 19th and
early 20th centuries. The rise of the leisure industry in the 1950s meant that
the complete abandonment of the remaining canals was avoided.
The increasing use of canals for leisure purposes led some people to
consider restoring some of those that had been abandoned. At first, progress
was slow due to the lack of funding, with most of the work having to be
24
done manually by volunteers.
As the leisure industry grew, the economic benefits of having a canal
became more apparent and some state funding started to appear. At the
same time public interest increased the size of various volunteer groups.
At the present time, canal restoration in the UK is carried out by a
mixture of volunteers and professionals working on a large variety of
projects.

NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
The natural environment encompasses all living and non-living
things occurring naturally on Earth or some region thereof. It is an
environment that encompasses the interaction of all living species. The
concept of the natural environment can be distinguished by components:
Complete ecological units that function as natural systems without
massive human intervention, including all vegetation, microorganisms, soil,
rocks, atmosphere and natural phenomena that occur within their
boundaries.
Universal natural resources and physical phenomena that lack clearcut boundaries, such as air, water, and climate, as well as energy, radiation,
electric charge, and magnetism, not originating from human activity.
The natural environment is contrasted with the built environment,
which comprises the areas and components that are strongly influenced by
humans. A geographical area is regarded as a natural environment.
It is difficult to find absolutely natural environments, and it is
common that the naturalness varies in a continuum, from ideally 100%
natural in one extreme to 0% natural in the other. More precisely, we can
consider the different aspects or components of an environment, and see
that their degree of naturalness is not uniform. If, for instance, we take an
agricultural field, and consider the mineralogic composition and the
structure of its soil, we will find that whereas the first is quite similar to that
of an undisturbed forest soil, the structure is quite different.
26
Natural environment is often used as a synonym for habitat. For
instance, when we say that the natural environment of giraffes is the
savanna.

MINE REHABILITATION
Modern mine rehabilitation aims to minimize and mitigate the
environmental effects of modern mining, which may in the case of open pit
mining involve movement of significant volumes of rock. Rehabilitation
management is an ongoing process, often resulting in open pit mines being
backfilled.
After mining finishes, the mine area must undergo rehabilitation.
Waste dumps are contoured to flatten them out, to further stabilize
them against erosion.
If the ore contains sulfides it is usually covered with a layer of clay to
prevent access of rain and oxygen from the air, which can oxidize the
sulfides to produce sulfuric acid.
Landfills are covered with topsoil, and vegetation is planted to help
consolidate the material.
Dumps are usually fenced off to prevent livestock denuding them of
vegetation.
The open pit is then surrounded with a fence, to prevent access, and it
generally eventually fills up with groundwater.
Tailings dams are left to evaporate, then covered with waste rock,
clay if need be, and soil, which is planted to stabilize it.
For underground mines, rehabilitation is not always a significant
problem or cost. This is because of the higher grade of the ore and lower
volumes of waste rock and tailings. In some situations, stopes are backfilled
with concrete slurry using waste, so that minimal waste is left at surface.
The removal of plant and infrastructure is not always part of a
rehabilitation programme, as many old mine plants have cultural heritage
and cultural value. Often in gold mines, rehabilitation is performed by
scavenger operations which treat the soil within the plant area for spilled
gold using modified placer mining gravity collection plants.

HOW TO BECOME A SURVEYOR
Surveyors typically need a bachelor’s degree. They must be licensed
before they can provide surveying services to the public and certify legal
documents.
Surveyors who are not licensed can work as survey technicians, but
they must work under the supervision of licensed surveyors.
Important Qualities
Communication skills. On the job, surveyors have to give team
members clear instructions. After the work in the field is done, surveyors
must be able to explain the job’s progress to developers, lawyers, financiers,
or government authorities.
Detail oriented. Surveyors must work with precision and accuracy
because mistakes can be costly.
Interpersonal skills. Surveying is a cooperative operation, so
surveyors must be able to work well on a team.
Listening skills. Surveyors receive instructions from designers, such
as architects, and they must listen carefully. They also depend on others on
their team and must allow team members to respond as needed. They are
often required to interview land owners about land boundaries and then
interpret this information to resolve land boundary issues.
Physical stamina. Surveyors traditionally work outdoors and often in
rugged terrain. They must have the ability to stand on their feet for many
hours and over many weeks.
Problem-solving skills. Surveyors must figure out discrepancies
between documents showing property lines and current conditions on the
land. If there have been changes in previous years, they must figure out why
the changes occurred so that property lines can be reestablished.
Time-management skills. Surveyors must be able to plan not only
29
their time on the job but also that of their team members. This is critical
when there are pressing deadlines or while working outside during winter
months when daylight hours are short.

RESTORATION ECOLOGY
Restoration ecology is the scientific study and practice of renewing
and restoring degraded, damaged, or destroyed ecosystems and habitats in
the environment by active human intervention and action, within a short
time frame. Restoration ecology emerged as a separate field in ecology in
the 1980s.
The Society for Ecological Restoration defines ecological restoration
as an "intentional activity that initiates or accelerates the recovery of an
ecosystem with respect to its health, integrity and sustainability". The
practice of ecological restoration includes wide scope of projects including:
erosion control, reforestation, the use of genetically local native species,
removal of non-native species and weeds, revegetation of disturbed areas,
reintroduction of native species, as well as habitat and range improvement
for targeted species.
The process of ecological restoration is unique in land management
perspectives, in that the goal is to restore the original or historic native
ecosystem of a site, utilizing local native plant species, excluding exotic
plants, and to restore the ecosystem to a self-sustainable state, within a
certain amount of time.
The aspect of time and performance standards as part of the
definition of ecological restoration, has been controversial since the
invention of this new profession—that projects should be completed within
a short amount of time, and that the percentage cover of the local native
vegetation should be as close to 100% as possible, with less than 1% weed
cover.

ATMOSPHERE, CLIMATE AND WEATHER
The atmosphere of the Earth serves as a key factor in sustaining the
planetary ecosystem. The thin layer of gases that envelops the Earth is held
in place by the planet's gravity. Dry air consists of 78% nitrogen, 21%
oxygen, 1% argon and other inert gases, such as carbon dioxide. The
remaining gases are often referred to as trace gases, among which are the
greenhouse gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous
oxide, and ozone. Filtered air includes trace amounts of many other
chemical compounds. Air also contains a variable amount of water vapor
and suspensions of water droplets and ice crystals seen as clouds. Many
natural substances may be present in tiny amounts in an unfiltered air
sample, including dust, pollen and spores, sea spray, volcanic ash, and
meteoroids. Various industrial pollutants also may be present, such as
chlorine (elementary or in compounds), fluorine compounds, elemental
mercury, and sulphur compounds such as sulphur dioxide [SO2].
The ozone layer of the Earth's atmosphere plays an important role in
depleting the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation that reaches the surface.
As DNA is readily damaged by UV light, this serves to protect life at the
surface. The atmosphere also retains heat during the night, thereby reducing
the daily temperature extremes.
Climate encompasses the statistics of temperature, humidity,
atmospheric pressure, wind, rainfall, atmospheric particle count and
numerous other meteorological elements in a given region over long
periods of time. Climate can be contrasted to weather, which is the present
condition of these same elements over periods up to two weeks.

ECOLOGICAL ENGINEERING
Ecological engineering is an emerging study of integrating ecology
and engineering, concerned with the design, monitoring and construction of
ecosystems. According to Mitsch (1996) "the design of sustainable
ecosystems intends to integrate human society with its natural environment
for the benefit of both".
Ecological engineering emerged as a new idea in the early 1960s, but
its definition has taken several decades to refine, its implementation is still
undergoing adjustment, and its broader recognition as a new paradigm is
32
relatively recent. Ecological engineering was introduced by Howard Odum
and others as utilizing natural energy sources as the predominant input to
manipulate and control environmental systems.
Mitsch and Jorgensen wrote that ecological engineering is designing
societal services such that they benefit society and nature, and later noted
the design should be systems based, sustainable, and integrate society with
its natural environment. Odum emphasized that self-organizational
properties were a central feature to ecological engineering.
Mitsch and Jørgensen were the first to define ecological engineering
and provide ecological engineering principles. Later they refined the
definition and increased the number of principles. They defined and
characterized ecological engineering. They suggest the goal of ecological
engineering is: a) the restoration of ecosystems that have been substantially
disturbed by human activities such as environmental pollution or land
disturbance, and b) the development of new sustainable ecosystems that
have both human and ecological values. They summarized the five concepts
key to ecological engineering as:
it is based on the self-designing capacity of ecosystems,
it can be a field test of ecological theory,
it relies on integrated system approaches,
it conserves non-renewable energy, and
it supports biological conservation.
Ecological engineering can be defined as: utilizing ecological science
and theory, applying to all types of ecosystems, adapting engineering design
methods, and acknowledging a guiding value system.

WHAT SURVEYORS DO
Surveyors establish land, airspace, and water boundaries. They
measure the Earth’s surface to collect data that are used to draw maps,
determine the shape and contour of parcels of land, and set property lines
and boundaries. They also define airspace for airports and measure
construction and mining sites. Surveyors work with civil engineers,
landscape architects, and urban and regional planners to develop
comprehensive design documents.
34
Surveyors typically do the following:
 Measure distances, directions, and angles between points on,
above, and below the Earth's surface
 Select known reference points and then determine the exact
location of important features in the survey area using special equipment
 Establish official land and water boundaries
 Research land records and other sources of information affecting
properties
 Look for evidence of previous boundaries to determine where
boundary lines are
 Travel to locations to measure distances and directions between
points
 Record the results of surveying and verify the accuracy of data
 Prepare plots, maps, and reports
 Work with cartographers (mapmakers), architects, construction
managers, and others
 Present findings to clients, government agencies, and others
 Write descriptions of land for deeds, leases, and other legal
documents
 Provide expert testimony in court regarding their work or that of
other surveyors
In their work, surveyors use the Global Positioning System (GPS), a
system of satellites that locates reference points with a high degree of
precision. Surveyors interpret and verify the GPS results. They gather the
data that is fed into a Geographic Information System (GIS), which is then
used to create detailed maps.

WATER CRISIS
Water crisis is a general term used to describe a situation where the
available water within a region is less than the region's demand. The term
has been used to describe the availability of potable water in a variety of
regions by the United Nations and other world organizations. Others, for
example the Food and Agriculture Organization, said in 2003 that there is
no water crisis but steps must be taken to avoid one in the future. The major
aspects of the water crisis are allegedly overall scarcity of usable water and
water pollution.
The Earth has a limited supply of fresh water, stored in aquifers,
surface waters and the atmosphere. Sometimes oceans are mistaken for
35
available water, but the amount of energy needed to convert saline water to
potable water is prohibitive today, explaining why only a very small
fraction of the world's water supply derives from desalination.
There are several principal manifestations of the water crisis:
inadequate access to safe drinking water for about 884 million
people;
inadequate access to water for sanitation and waste disposal for 2.5
billion people;
groundwater overdrafting (excessive use) leading to diminished
agricultural yields;
overuse and pollution of water resources harming biodiversity;
regional conflicts over scarce water resources sometimes resulting in
warfare.
Waterborne diseases and the absence of sanitary domestic water are
one of the leading causes of death worldwide. For children under age five,
waterborne diseases are the leading cause of death. At any given time, half
of the world's hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from
waterborne diseases. According to the World Bank, 88 percent of all
waterborne diseases are caused by unsafe drinking water, inadequate
sanitation and poor hygiene.

В специальном вопросе на первое место выйдет вопросительное
слово, на второе - вспомогательный глагол, далее – подлежащее и
смысловой глагол:
Where do you live? (Где ты живѐшь?)
Where does she live? (Где она живѐт?)
Сокращения: do not = don't does not = doesn't
Past indefinite (Прошедшее простое время)
Прошедшее простое время служит для выражения обычного,
регулярного действия или ряда последовательных действий в
прошлом:
Yesterday I got up, washed my face, dressed up, had my breakfast
and left home.
(Вчера я встал, умылся, оделся, позавтракал и вышел из дома.)
а также для выражения состояния в прошлом:
I was 25 last year. (Мне было 25 в прошлом году.)
В этом времени часто встречаются слова: yesterday (вчера), the day
before yesterday (позавчера), last week (на прошлой неделе), last
38
month (в прошлом месяце), 5 years ago (5 лет назад) и т.д.
Утвердительная форма
В утвердительном предложении всегда прямой порядок слов (см.
стр. 3). Чтобы поставить глагол в прошедшее простое время, нужно
прибавить к нему окончание -ed, если глагол правильный. Если глагол
неправильный, то необходима его II форма:
He lived in Barnaul last year. (Он жил в Барнауле в прошлом году.)
I saw you yesterday. (Я видел тебя вчера.)
(see – saw – seen – три формы неправильного глагола)
Отрицательная форма
Отрицание в прошедшем простом времени образуется при помощи
вспомогательного глагола "did" и отрицательной частицы "not",
которые ставятся перед смысловым глаголом:
He did not live in Barnaul last year. (Он не жил в Барнауле в прошлом
году.)
Обратите внимание на один весьма важный момент! Сам
смысловой глагол в отрицании (а также в вопросе) не стоит в
прошедшем времени. Он стоит в форме настоящего времени, т.е. без
окончания -ed или в I форме. Почему так, ведь время в данном случае
прошедшее? Это происходит потому, что вспомогательные глагол "did"
уже сообщает нам о том, что время – прошедшее простое, и нет
необходимости изменять смысловой глагол. Сравните:
I saw you yesterday.  I did not see you yesterday.
(Я видел тебя вчера.  Я не видел тебя вчера.)
Вопросительная форма
В общем вопросе (см. стр. 4) на первое место ставится
вспомогательный глагол "did", на второе место – подлежащее, далее
смысловой глагол и остальная часть предложения.
Did he live in Barnaul last year? (Он жил в Барнауле в прошлом году?)
Did you see me yesterday? (Ты видел меня вчера?)
В специальном вопросе (см. стр. 4) сначала идѐт вопросительное
слово, затем вспомогательный глагол "did", далее подлежащее и
смысловой глагол:
Where did he live last year? (Где он жил в прошлом году?)
Where did you see me yesterday? (Где ты видел меня вчера?)
39
Сокращения
did not = didn't
Future Indefinite (Будущее простое время)
выражает обычное, регулярное действие или состояние в
будущем:
She will go to the south in summer. (Она поедет на юг летом.)
В данном времени можно часто встретить слова: tomorrow
(завтра), the day after tomorrow (послезавтра), next week (на
следующей неделе), in two days (через два дня) и т.д.
Все
три
формы
(утвердительная,
отрицательная,
вопросительная) в будущем простом времени образуются при помощи
вспомогательного глагола "will":
Утвердительная форма
He will live in Barnaul next year.
(Он будет жить в Барнауле в следующем году.)
Отрицательная форма
He will not live in Barnaul next year.
(Он не будет жить в Барнауле в следующем году.)
Вопросительная форма
Will he live in Barnaul next year? (Будет ли он жить в Барнауле в
следующем году?)
Where will he live next year? (Где он будет жить в следующем году?)
В придаточном предложении времени и условия будущее время
употреблять нельзя, вместо него употребляется настоящее.
Придаточные предложения времени начинаются со слов when (когда),
while (в то время как), before (до того, как), after (после того, как) и т.д.:
Tell me when you come. (Скажи мне, когда ты придѐшь.)
Придаточные предложения условия начинаются со слов if (если),
unless (если не) и т.д.:
If you come, we will watch TV together.
(Если ты придѐшь, мы будем смотреть телевизор вместе.)
Сокращения: he will = he'll, will not = won't
Глагол-исключение to be
Глагол "to be" (быть, являться, находиться) отличается от всех
40
глаголов рядом особенностей:
во-первых, он может быть и смысловым глаголом (т.е. может
переводиться на рус. яз.), и вспомогательным глаголом (т.е. на
рус. яз. не переводится, а служит для образования временных
форм);
во-вторых, он спрягается по лицам и числам, т.е. у него есть
несколько форм в настоящем и прошедшем простом времени;
в-третьих, будучи смысловым глаголом, он образует отрицание
и вопрос не по правилу, т.е. без вспомогательного глагола "do",
"did".
Настоящее простое время
В настоящем простом времени у глагола "to be" три формы:
"am" для местоимения "I": I am a doctor. (Я – врач. Я есть врач.)

"are" для множественного числа и местоимения "you":
You are a doctor. (Ты – врач.) They are doctors. (Они – врачи.)
Утверждение: She is 25 years old. (Ей 25 лет.)
Отрицание: She is not 25 years old. (Ей нет 25 лет.)
Вопрос: Is she 25 years old? (Ей 25 лет?)
Прошедшее простое время
В прошедшем простом времени у глагола "to be" две формы:
"was" для единственного числа: He was a doctor. (Он был
врачом.)
"were" для множественного числа и местоимения "you":
You were a doctor. (Ты был врачом.)
They were doctors. (Они были врачами.)
Утверждение: She was 25 last year. (Ей было 25 в прошлом
году.)
Отрицание: She was not 25 last year. (Ей не было 25 в прошлом
году.)
Вопрос: Was she 25 last year? ( Было ли ей 25 в прошлом году?)
Будущее простое время
В будущем простом времени у глагола "to be" одна форма – "will
be".
Утверждение: She will be 25 next year. (Ей будет 25 в
следующем году.)
Отрицание: She will not be 25 next year. (Ей не будет 25 в
41
следующем году.)
Вопрос: Will she be 25 next year? (Будет ли ей 25 в следующем
году?)

Present Participle (Причастие I)
образуется добавлением к глаголу окончания -ing: to work
(работать)  working (причастие I). Причастие Present показывает
последующее или одновременное действие с действием в главном
45
предложении. Причастие Perfect показывает предыдущее действие.
Причастие I имеет следующие формы:
ACTIVE
PASSIVE
V1+ing
coming
being
being brought
PRESENT
V3
having
having been
having been sent
PERFECT having V3
asked
V3
В предложении может выполнять функции:
1. Функция определения. В этой функции обычно
используется причастие Present. Определение обычно находится до
или после существительного. На русский язык причастие Present
Active переводится причастием настоящего времени с окончанием
«ющий, ящая и тд.», например: строящий, идущий. Причатие Present
Passive переводить можно либо глаголом на –ся, -сь:
рассматривающийся, либо оборотом в страдательной форме
несовершенного вида: который рисуют, которую вносят и т.д.:
The tree growing in the garden is very beautiful. Дерево, растущее в
саду, очень красивое.
The letter being written is to my mother. Письмо, которое пишут,
предназначено моей маме.
2.
Функция обстоятельства. Причастие или причастный
оборот находится обычно в начале или конце предложения. На рус. яз.
Причастие Active Present переводится несовершенным видом
деепричастия (что делая?), оканчивающимся на –ая, например: рисуя,
идя. Причастие Passive Perfect переводится совершенным видом
деепричастия (что сделав?), оканчивающимся на –в, например:
написав, прочитав. Причастие Passive Present можно переводить
страдательной конструкцией с глаголом «быть» и кратким причастием:
будучи написан, либо можно перевести обстоятельственным
предложением страдательной формы несовершенного вида: когда
писали, когда рисовали.
Going along the street, I met my friend. Идя по улице, я встретил своего
друга.
Having written the letter she went for a walk. Написав письмо, она
пошла прогуляться.
Being noticed he couldn’t deny his presence in the place. Будучи замечен
он не мог отрицать, что он присутствовал на этом месте.
Having been filmed once in a horror film he couldn’t appear in the streets
46
without a mask. После того как он был однажды снят в фильме
ужасов, он не мог показываться на улицах без маски.
3. Функция части сказуемого. Причастие находится на 2 месте в
предложении. В этой функции причастие I участвует в образовании
длительных времѐн и на русский язык переводится обычным глаголом
в нужном времени:
I am going along the street. Я иду по улице
Past Participle (Причастие II)
Причастие II – это правильный глагол с окончанием -ed или III
форма неправильного глагола:
to work (работать)  worked (причастие II)
to see (видеть)  seen (причастие II,
Причастие II в предложении может выполнять следующие
функции:
1. Функция определения. Определение обычно находится до
или после существительного. На русский переводится причастием
совершенного вида с суффиксами «енн, ан, тый, мый», например:
вымытый, сделанный, приклеенный, любимый:
The grown tree is beautiful. (Выращенное дерево красивое.)
2. Функция обстоятельства. Причастие или причастный оборот
находится обычно в начале или конце предложения. В русском языке
соответствует придаточному предложению, также можно переводить
конструкцией типа: будучи написанным:
When given the book, read text 2. (Когда вам дадут книгу, прочитайте
текст 2.)
3. Функция части сказуемого. Причастие находится на 2 месте
в предложении. В данной функции причастие II участвует в
образовании совершенных времѐн либо страдательной формы и на
русский язык переводится глаголом в нужном времени и в нужной
форме:
He has built the house. (Он построил дом.)
Modal Verbs (Модальные глаголы)
Модальные глаголы сами не выражают действие, а лишь
выражают отношение говорящего к действию, выраженному
смысловым глаголом.
47
Модальные глаголы не употребляются самостоятельно, а только
в сочетании с инфинитивом смыслового глагола. Они обозначают
возможность, способность, вероятность, необходимость совершения
действия, выраженного смысловым глаголом.
He can do it himself.
Он может сам это
сделать.
They may come tonight.
Они могут прийти
сегодня вечером.
I must speak to him.
Я должен с ним
поговорить.
This work ought to be done at once.
Эта работа
должна быть сделана немедленно
You needn’t do it.
Вам не нужно (нет
необходимости) это делать.
Инфинитив, следующий за этими глаголами, употребляется без
частицы to. (Исключение - Ought to).
В 3-м лице единственного числа настоящего времени
модальные глаголы не имеют окончания –s: He must go there. She may
take it.
Вопросительная форма образуется без вспомогательного
глагола to do; модальный глагол ставится перед подлежащим: May I
take it? Must he go there? Ought he to help me?
Отрицательная форма образуется при помощи частицы not,
которая ставиться непосредственно после модального глагола. При чѐм
can пишется с not слитно – cannot: He cannot do it. You need not do it.
You may not take it. He ought not to help him.
В разговорной речи в отрицательной форме обычно
употребляются сокращения:
cannot – can’t
may not – mayn’t
oght not – oughtn’t
must not – mustn’t
could not – couldn’t
might not – mightn’t
need not – needn’t
Can
Употребляется для выражения возможности или способности
совершить действие.
I can speak English. - Он умеет говорить по-английски.
He can finish this work next week – Он может закончить эту
48
работу на следующей неделе.
He can swim. – Он умеет плавать.
Could –форма глагола can в прошедшем времени.
He could speak English when he was a boy. – Он умел говорить
по0английски, когда был мальчиком.
Глагол can имеет эквивалент to be able to,который употребляется
в прошедшем времени наряду с could,а также для выражения будущего
времени, т.к. глагол can не имеет формы будущего времени.
He was able to swim very well when he was young. = He could swim
very well when he was young.
You will be able to construct new agricultural machines when you
become engineers.
May
Употребляется для выражения разрешения, предположения.
May I come in? - Yes, you may. –Я могу войти? – Да, можете.
He may know her address. – Он может знать еѐ адрес.
She may come to Moscow in the summer. – Летом она может
приехать в Москву.
You may not find him there. - Вы можете не найти его там.
He may have left Moscow. - Он мог уехать из Москвы.
Might – форма прошедшего времени от глагола may.
If she called at his office at five o’clock, she might find him there.Если бы она позвонила в его офис в 5 часов, она могла найти его там.
В будущем времени употребляется эквивалент глагола may – to
be allowed to:
If we behave well, we’ll be allowed to go to the cinema. –Если мы
будем вести себя хорошо, нам разрешат пойти в кино.
Сам глагол may формы будущего времени не имеет.
Must
Употребляется для выражения приказа, совета, необходимости
совершения действия в силу определѐнных обстоятельств.
I must do it at once. – Я должен сделать это немедленно.
You must go there tomorrow. – Вы должны поехать туда завтра.
You must post the letter now. – Вы должны отправить письмо
прямо сейчас.
49
You must consult a doctor. – Вы должны проконсультироваться с
врачом.
А также для выражения предположения с большой долей
уверенности:
He must know her address. –Он должен знать еѐ адрес.
Must not всегда обозначает строгий категоричный запорет и
переводится словом «нельзя».
You mustn’t smoke here. – Здесь нельзя курить.
Глаголы to be to и to have to являются эквивалентами must, т.к.
must не имеет форм прошедшего и будущего времени.

моральный долг, и т.д. Переводятся словами «должен», «следует»:
You ought to help your parents. – Ты должен помогать родителям.
You should me more careful. – Вам следует быть осторожнее.
The Passive Voice
(Страдательный залог)
Если подлежащее обозначает лицо или предмет,
подвергающийся действию со стороны другого лица или предмета, то
глагол употребляется в форме страдательного залога.
The planets are attracted by the sun. - Планеты притягиваются
солнцем.
“Poltava” was written by Pushkin in 1828. – «Полтава» была
написана Пушкиным в 1828 году.
Времена страдательного залога образуются при помощи
вспомогательного глагола to be в соответствующем времени и формы
причастия прошедшего времени (Participle II) смыслового глагола. =>
Изменяется только вспомогательный глагол to be, форма смыслового
глагола остаѐтся неизменной.
I am invited. – Я приглашѐн.
I was invited. – Я был приглашѐн.
I will be invited. – Я буду приглашѐн.
В высказываниях с пассивным сказуемым исполнитель действия
чаще всего не указывается, но если говорящий считает нужным его
указать, он употребляет предлог by:

открыта Колумбом в 1492 году.
Предлог with стоит перед словом, обозначающим материал или

указывая ни лица, ни числа.
Инфинитив отвечает на вопросы: что делать? что сделать? to

покупать; to sell - продать, продавать.
Инфинитив имеет формы времени и залога:

Gerund (Герундий)
Герундий представляет собой неличную глагольную форму,
выражающую название действия и обладающую как свойствами
существительного, так и свойствами глагола. В русском языке
соответствующая форма отсутствует. Функции герундия во многом
сходны с функциями инфинитива, также сочетающего свойства
существительного со свойствами глагола. Герундий, однако, имеет
больше свойств существительного, чем инфинитив.
Обладая свойствами существительного, герундий может
служить в предложении:
1. Подлежащим: Reading is her favorite occupation. – Чтение –
еѐ любимое занятие.
2. Именной частью составного сказуемого: Her greatest
pleasure is reading. – Еѐ самое большое удовольствие – это чтение.
3. Частью составного глагольного сказуемого: He finished
reading the book. – Он кончил читать книгу.

стола.
Absolute Participle Construction (Независимый причастный
оборот)
Независимый причастный оборот – это причастный оборот со
своим собственным подлежащим.
Предложение с такой конструкцией может строиться по одной из
следующих схем:
I.
S + PI (PII),
S + Predicate
(Независимый причастный оборот) (основная часть предложения)
Rain falling to the land, soil erodes. – При выпадении дождя
происходит эрозия почвы.
Fertilizers being used, soil fertility is improved. - При
использовании удобрений улучшается плодородие почвы.
II.
S + Predicate,
S + PI (PII)
(основная часть предложения) (Независимый причастный оборот)
I have two friends, one of them studying at the university. –У меня
есть два друга. Один из них учится в университете.
Many crops are grown by this farm, wheat being the most important.Из культур, выращиваемых на этой ферме, пшеница – самая важная.
Complex object
(Объектный инфинитивный оборот; инфинитивный оборот
«сложное дополнение»)
Эта конструкция строится по следующей модели:
Подлежащее Сказуемое
Объектный падеж + инфинитив
(в действительном залоге)
We
Мы

что они сделают это вовремя.
expect

55
«Сложное дополнение» состоит из существительного или
местоимения в объектном (косвенном) падеже и инфинитива.
Инфинитив обозначает действие, которое совершает лицо или предмет,
выраженный существительным или местоимением, стоящим перед
инфинитивом. На русский язык «сложное дополнение» переводится
придаточным предложением с союзами что, так, чтобы. При этом,
существительное или местоимение переводится подлежащим, а
инфинитив – сказуемым. Время сказуемого при переводе определяется
временем сказуемого в главном предложении. Эта конструкция в
предложении стоит на месте дополнения (т.е. на третьем месте).
Конструкция «сложное дополнение» может использоваться
только после таких глаголов, как: to know знать, to want хотеть, to
expect ожидать, to consider считать, полагать, to think думать, to
suppose полагать, to find находить, to believe верить и некоторых
других, употреблѐнных в действительном залоге:
I want you to work better.
Я хочу, чтобы вы работали лучше.
После глаголов, выражающих чувства, восприятие (to feel
чувствовать, to see видеть, to hear слышать, to watch наблюдать, to
observe наблюдать, to notice замечать и др.), частица to перед
инфинитивом опускается:
We saw them work on the construction site. Мы видели, как они
работали на стройке.
Complex subject
(Инфинитивный оборот «сложное подлежащее»)
Эта конструкция строится по следующей модели:
_______Сложное подлежащее_____________
Подлежащее
Сказуемое
Инфинитив
(существительное
(обычно глагол в
или местоимение в
страдательном залоге)
именительном падеже)
He
is known
to go to work to Siberia.
Известно, что он поедет работать в Сибирь.
Инфинитив (to go) обозначает действие, которое совершает
подлежащее (he) и, следовательно, переводится как сказуемое, а
формальное сказуемое (is known) переводится вводными словами (как
56
известно, как говорят) или неопределѐнно-личным предложением с
последующим союзом что: «Известно, что он поедет работать в
Сибирь» или «Он, как известно, поедет работать в Сибирь».
Перфектный инфинитив (Perfect Infinitive) обозначает
законченное действие и поэтому переводится глаголом в прошедшем
времени:
He is said to have gone to work to Siberia. – Говорят, что он уехал
работать в Сибирь.
В качестве «формального» сказуемого в этой конструкции могут
употребляться только определѐнные глаголы, а именно:
в страдательном залоге (Passive Voice) – to report сообщать, to
say говорить, to know знать, to suppose предполагать, to state
утверждать, to expect ожидать, to consider рассматривать,
считать, to believe полагать, to think думать, to find находить:
They are expected to come back in two days. – Ожидают, что они
вернутся через два дня.
в действительном залоге (Active Voice) – to seem казаться (в
составе этой конструкции – «по-видимому»); to happen случаться (в
составе этой конструкции «случается», «случалось»); to appear
появляться (в составе этой конструкции «по-видимому»); to prove
доказывать (в составе этой конструкции – «оказывается»,
«оказалось»); to be likely вероятно; to be unlikely вряд ли; to be sure,
to be certain быть уверенным (в составе этой конструкции –
«наверняка»):
They are unlikely to come in time.
Они вряд ли придут
вовремя.
The work is proved to be useful.
Работа оказалась
полезной.

MY SPECIALITY
(для студентов специальности «Комплексное использование и
охрана водных ресурсов»)
I’m a second-year student of the Faculty of Nature Management. I’m
studying to be an engineer in the field of water resources management.
Water resources are sources of water that are useful to humans. Uses
of water include agricultural, industrial, household, recreational and
environmental activities. All of these human uses require fresh water.
Fresh water is a renewable resource, yet the world's supply of clean,
fresh water is steadily decreasing. Water demand already exceeds supply in
many parts of the world.
As a specialist in this area I’ll be responsible for the rational
utilization of water resources and for the protection of environment. I’ll also
take part in the construction and reconstruction of irrigation projects.
It is estimated that 69% of worldwide water use is for irrigation.
That’s why we study different irrigation methods such as furrow and
overhead sprinkler irrigation, drip or trickle irrigation, surge irrigation, and
some other. We learn how to apply different types of sprinkler systems.
Any system that is improperly managed can be wasteful. All methods have
the potential for high efficiencies under suitable conditions, appropriate
irrigation timing and management. We must learn how to improve irrigation
methods and technologies, agricultural water management, and water
monitoring.
61
Water pollution is one of the main concerns of the world today.
Sewage, sludge, garbage, and even toxic pollutants are all dumped into the
water. It is very important to find solutions to reduce this problem. Water
protection is one of the main tasks for the specialists in water resources
management.
MY SPECIALITY
(для студентов специальности «Землейстройство и кадастры»)
I study at Altai State Agricultural University. I am a second-year
student of the Faculty of Natural Resources Management. I am studying to
be an engineer in the field of land surveying.
Called "Geomatics" in Canada and much of Europe, land surveying is
known as the world's second-oldest profession. It dates back to ancient
Egypt and Babylonia. Surveying is the art and science of measuring and
mapping land. The main task of the surveyor is determining where people's
land boundaries are located. Without this service, railroads could not be
built, skyscrapers could not be erected, and individuals could not put up
fences around their yards. We also stake out boundaries of roads to be built,
monitor skyscrapers to make sure they are being erected vertically, and
measure airports so that the runways are perfectly aligned and smooth.
Surveying is a vital part of the design and construction process. We
perform boundary surveys to tell people where their property is, map the
topography of land for engineering design, establish elevations of homesites
for flood insurance, perform title surveys for real estate transactions, certify
that structures are built according to design. We also map slopes and areas,
river bottoms, write legal descriptions that are used to describe pieces of
property, map and layout corridors for tunnels, roads, airports, pipelines,
cellular networks and railroads, and split up properties into new lots, such
as subdivisions.
In order to become qualified specialists the students of our faculty
every summer get practice in the suburbs of Barnaul. There we learn how to
use such devices as GPS or Global Positioning System, a distance meter,
and a theodolite. GPS is a tool we use for precise positioning of points. It
operates through satellites which send out signals to our receiver. The
receiver then transmits those signals to our data collector, which stores the
data. After we get it into the office, we download the data into the
computer, and the computer software resolves from the data the exact
position of our point within a few millimeters.
The primary function of the field surveyor is measuring, mapping,
and observing. Our most important tool for these purposes is our total
62
station. It's given this name because it incorporates a distance meter for
measuring distances and a theodolite for measuring angles into one
instrument.
I’m sure that my profession is a very promising one. I hope I’ll be
able to find a good well-paid job when I graduate from the university in
three years.
BRITISH AGRICULTURE
Agriculture, one of Britain's most important industries, supplies
nearly two-thirds of the country's food. British agriculture is efficient, for it
is based on modern technology and research.
Nearly 80% of the land is used for agriculture. The total agricultural
acreage of Great Britain is about 45,000,000 acres. Soils vary from the poor
ones of highland Britain to the rich fertile soils in the eastern and southeastern parts of England.
Britain is self-sufficient in milk, eggs, to a very great extent in meat,
potatoes, wheat. However, it needs to import butter, cheese, sugar and some
other agricultural products.
There are about 55,000 farms in Britain. They are not large. An
average sized farm is about 30-40 acres. There are three main types of
farming in Great Britain: pastoral, arable, mixed. 60% of farms are
developed mainly to dairying or beef cattle and sheep. Sheep and cattle are
reared in the hill and moorland areas of Scotland, Wales, Nothern Ireland
and south- western England. Milk production is the first importance in the
structure of British agriculture. Pig breeding is carried on in most areas but
particularly in southern England, north-east Scotland and Nothern Ireland.
Arable farms are mainly in the eastern part of the country. The main
cereal crops in Great Britain are wheat, barley and oats. Rye is grown in
small quantities for use as cattle fodder.
Great Britain produces different kinds of fruit: apples, pears, cherries,
gooseberries, strawberries, raspberries and others. Potatoes are grown for
sale, for fodder and for seed.
Modern machines: tractors, combines and other equipment are used
on British farms. But today the main tendency in British agriculture is that
small traditional farms are gradually disappearing because they cannot
compete with big industrial farms.
Private woods make up 56% of the total forests area in Great Britain.
Woodlands cover nearly 2.2 million hectares. Britain's second major source
of food is the surrounding sea. The fishing industry provides about 70% of
British fish supplies.
