Custom Soil Resource Report <br /> Class 5 soils are subject to little or no erosion but have other limitations, <br /> impractical to remove, that restrict their use mainly to pasture, rangeland, <br /> forestland, or wildlife habitat. <br /> Class 6 soils have severe limitations that make them generally unsuitable for <br /> cultivation and that restrict their use mainly to pasture, rangeland, forestland, or <br /> wildlife habitat. <br /> - Class 7 soils have very severe limitations that make them unsuitable for <br /> cultivation and that restrict their use mainly to grazing, forestland, or wildlife <br /> habitat. <br /> Class 8 soils and miscellaneous areas have limitations that preclude <br /> commercial plant production and that restrict their use to recreational purposes, <br /> wildlife habitat, watershed, or esthetic purposes. <br /> Capability subclasses are soil groups within one class.They are designated by <br /> adding a small letter, e, w, s, or c, to the class numeral, for example, 2e.The letter e <br /> shows that the main hazard is the risk of erosion unless close-growing plant cover is <br /> maintained; w shows that water in or on the soil interferes with plant growth or <br /> cultivation (in some soils the wetness can be partly corrected by artificial drainage); <br /> s shows that the soil is limited mainly because it is shallow, droughty, or stony; and <br /> c, used in only some parts of the United States, shows that the chief limitation is <br /> climate that is very cold or very dry. <br /> In class 1 there are no subclasses because the soils of this class have few <br /> limitations. Class 5 contains only the subclasses indicated by w, s, or c because the <br /> soils in class 5 are subject to little or no erosion. <br /> Report—Land Capability Classification <br /> Land Capability Classification-Woo County,Colorado,Southern Part <br /> Map unit symbol and name Pct of Component name Land Capability <br /> map unit Subclass <br /> Nonirrigat Irrigated <br /> ed <br /> 3—Aquolls and Aquents,gravelly substratum <br /> 55 Aquolls 6w I — <br /> 30 Aquerrts,gravepy substratum' i3w OW <br /> 10—Ellicott-Ellicott sandy-skeletal complex,0 <br /> to 3 percent slopes,rarely flooded <br /> i <br /> 65 Ellicott,rarely flooded 7s 4e <br /> 777T -'a 25 > Ilicx}tt sandy-skeletal.rarelYiOodetl <br /> 21—Dacono clay loam,0 to 1 percent slopes <br /> 85 Dacono 3s 2s <br /> 22—Dacono clay loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes <br /> 85 Dacono 3s, 2e <br /> 39—Nunn loam,0 to 1 percent slopes <br /> 85 Nunn 4c 3e <br /> 41—Nunn clay loam,0 to 1 percent slopes <br /> 85 Nunn 4e 3e <br /> 55 <br />
