We're not sure if soil will affect crops, but... Jorb stated that crops will have their own nodes.

Crops have been returned to the mechanics in Legacy. If their quality is below the local quality field for that type of crop -- all crops have their own -- they will, for each generation, change their quality from -5 to +5. If they are above the local quality field they will instead change in quality from -5 to +2, for each generation. If your farming value is lower than the quality of the crop, the result of the quality change will always be negative. Each crop harvested is randomized individually.
