Although, it 16 <br />generally appropriately considered as an area for raising trees and har- <br />vesting timber and other ~ood products. Generally, most land can be <br />considered under one use by common practice. "Thus, W"e generally think <br />of land in terms of crop land, range land, forest land, recreation land, <br />etc. This has been characterized for the Comprehensive Framework Study <br />as the "primary" use, although It may be as useful for other purposes. <br />~e searched for a designation for the other uses of the land to identify <br />them from "primary." -..Je did not like many of the terms cOOlmonly used, <br />like 'secondary," as they tended to depreciate these other uses, and l,/e <br />adopted the tenn "ancillary" to cover the uses other than "primary." <br /> <br />The area for the various resource uses 1~ the Missouri Basin which <br />have been classified as "primary" are: <br /> <br />Primary <br />Use <br /> <br />Cropland <br />Forest & Woodlands <br />Fasture & Range <br />Other Agricultural <br />Recreation <br />Fish &: Wildlife <br />Urban & Transportation <br />Water <br />Mineral Industries <br />Mili tary <br />Total <br /> <br />Total Acres <br />in Millions <br /> <br />wmlt1l'\ <br />(; 0I11111'IIC"1"11:II.U" <br />I IICIIITIOlIIU" <br />1/ nu,wUifllll" <br />1/ /,1It1U I llustOITIIIO_ l"" <br />'/_.Ilnllll.ll" <br />i...."..."...." <br /> <br />103.8 <br />28.2 <br />176,8 <br />3.6 <br />2.8 <br />1.8 <br />7.1 <br />3.8 <br />.03 <br />.62 <br />328.5 <br /> <br /> <br />UIIC( UII'I. <br /> <br />CIOl'l..II111IIIo1'1. <br /> <br />An entirely different picture is obtained when one looks at the <br />ancillary uses of the land. This is the resource functional use of the <br />area; as an illustration - although recreation 1s the primary user of <br />only 2,802,000 acres of land, it is felt that of the crop land, 8,935,000 <br />acres are useful to recreation; of the forest and woodland, 17,038,000 are <br />useful to recreation; of the pasture and range land, 34,595,000 are useful <br />to recreation; of the other agricultural land, 93,000 are of use to recrea- <br />'tion. Of the fish and wildlife area, 1,284,000 acres are useful to recrea- <br />tion; of the transportation and urban lands, 388,000 are useful to recrea- <br />tion; of the WBter area, 2,775,000 acres are useful to recreation; 2,000 acres <br />of the land primarily for mineral industry are useful to recreation; and <br />34,000 acres of the military lands are useful to recreation.
