Founded in 1930 as a branch of Geological Survey, and known as Reconnaissance Soil Survey, with just two members: Leslie Issott Grange and Norman Hargrave Taylor. In 1933 the unit became known as "Soil Survey Division", and then as "Soil Bureau" in 1946. Based in Tawa, Wellington. The Soil Bureau was transferred to Landcare Research in 1992.
