Approximately 25% of the available forage is assumed consumable by livestock. <br />A cow -calf pair would consume approximately 30 pounds of forage per day. <br />Based on these assumptions, the carrying capacity for the 86 acres of grazeable land is approximately 11 <br />animal days/acre and approximately 2.7 acres/animal unit month. <br />Table 2.5-5 Vegetative Productivity by Soil Type <br />Map <br />Map Unit Name <br />Rating (pounds <br />Acres <br />Percent <br />Total lbs of <br />Unit <br />of forage <br />Within <br />of PR07 <br />Production <br />production per <br />PR07 <br />Area <br />per Year <br />acre per year)* <br />Area <br />3 <br />Adderton loam, 1 to 10 % slopes <br />2000 <br />18.55 <br />2.33 <br />37,100 <br />22 <br />Bulkley silty clay, 3 to 12 % slopes <br />600 <br />18.53 <br />2.33 <br />11,118 <br />33 <br />Clayburn loam, warm, 3 to 25 % <br />1200 <br />20.35 <br />2.56 <br />24,420 <br />slopes <br />37 <br />Cochetopa loam, 2 to 25 percent <br />1200 <br />2.31 <br />0.29 <br />2,772 <br />slopes <br />72 <br />Foidel loam, cool, 3 to 25 % slopes <br />1500 <br />168.99 <br />21.24 <br />253,485 <br />73 <br />Foidel loam, 25 to 65 % slopes <br />1500 <br />133.91 <br />16.83 <br />200,865 <br />99 <br />Hesperus fine sandy loam, dry, 2 to <br />1200 <br />92.04 <br />11.57 <br />110,448 <br />15 % slopes <br />100 <br />Hesperus loam, dry, 15 to 50 % <br />1500 <br />21.00 <br />2.64 <br />31,500 <br />slopes <br />114 <br />Lamphier fine sandy loam, 3 to 25 % <br />1500 <br />66.05 <br />8.30 <br />99,075 <br />slopes <br />115 <br />Lamphier fine sandy loam, 25 to 65 <br />1500 <br />58.67 <br />7.37 <br />88,005 <br />slopes <br />135 <br />Morapos loam, 12 to 25 % slopes <br />1200 <br />2.80 <br />0.35 <br />3,360 <br />166 <br />Routt loam, 3 to 25 % slopes <br />1500 <br />21.34 <br />2.68 <br />32,010 <br />197 <br />Torriorthents - Rock Outcrop, <br />240 <br />25.42 <br />3.19 <br />6,101 <br />Sandstone Complex 25 to 75 & <br />slopes <br />206 <br />Ustorthents, frigid-Borolls Complex, <br />772 <br />76.44 <br />9.61 <br />59,012 <br />25 to 75 % slopes <br />213 <br />Winevada - Splitro Complex, 3 to 25 <br />1200 <br />47.25 <br />5.94 <br />56,700 <br />% slopes <br />214 <br />Winevada - Splitro Complex, 25 to65 <br />1500 <br />16.61 <br />2.09 <br />24,915 <br />% slopes <br />271 <br />Water <br />0 <br />0.17 <br />0.02 <br />AQ <br />Aquolls* 1 <br />1,200 <br />5.28 <br />0.66 <br />6,336 <br />TOTALI <br />1 <br />795.71 <br />100 <br />1,047,222 <br />* No NRCS productivity data is included for the Aquolls soils.
