<br />A small grain orop should be planted immediately after leveling to <br />prevent dama,ge from er:osion. <br /> <br />About 1.75 to 2.00 acre-feet of water per acre should be plenty to <br /> <br /> <br />produoe a yield of alfalfa in excess of 3~ tons per acre. Small grain <br /> <br /> <br />yields should approach maximum of about 1.0 acre-foot of water per acre. <br /> <br />Soils Classed No. .2 <br />These soils in general are friable cl~ loams to light cl~s two to four <br />feet thick on slopes of 4 to 8 per oent, 100 to 300 feet in length. <br /> <br />Under good to average management practice it will probably require 10 to <br />20 per cent mone water to produce estimated yields (tables 1 and 2) on <br />"No. 2" land flhan that required on "No.1" land.. <br /> <br />Leveling on these soils will not reduce yields noticeably exoept on small <br />spots for perhaps a year to two. A small grain crop should be planted <br />with or without alfalfa immediately after leveling to prevent damage to <br />the leveling work by erosion. <br /> <br />loindsey 1lro~ <br />
