<br />1~~~y~v~ - Jumper - Z <br />• ~ <br />Ability to reproduce itacurally: Best reproduction is obtained under tree croiins, <br />Planting is possible, but impractical due to low survival, sloca growth and <br />often rocky soils, <br />Crazing Use: 'fhe amount of „razing is pretty much controlled by the density o: <br />the crrnun cover. Grass will grow under crown canopies up to GO percent, but <br />the use may be limited. 1•tost of the type is used for grazing rather than wood <br />production, On clayey soils grazing will cause more erosion than where the so <br />soils are loamy or derived from sandstone. <br />hlanaRement Considerations: For commercial wood production the type has little <br />value, Fence posts, Luel wood, Christmas trees and pinyon nuts are products <br />available. Investments in the land to increase their production are of doubt- <br />ful economic feasibility for the private owner. <br />Stands on clayey soils should have more restricted uses than soils that are <br />loamy or sandy because of erosion and sediment producing hazards, Fire pro- <br />tection is needed if tl~c type is to be maintained, <br />(:'here soils and slopes are suitable for alternati~•c uses it may be cleared <br />for range, pasture or cropland uses. ~~reas plnnii~d for clearing for other <br />uses must be thoroughly clieclced by soil scientists. <br />• Because temperatures are milder where this type occurs than in other cioodlnnd <br />types the possibilities of developing recreation use should not be overlooked, <br />• <br />
