,- <br /> <br />X. Operations on Prime Farmland <br />A. Comparisons to determine revegetation success shall be based on crop production <br />standards which the Division proposes to approve (4.25.2(3)). The production <br />standard will be based on three years of production data from well managed <br />hayland directly west of the proposed permit area. First year results (1987) <br />indicate that about 6.0 tons per acre per year can be expected as a production <br />success standard. <br />B. The Division proposes to approve the planting of a perennial crop to be used as <br />hay on prime farmlands. This has been shown to be a common long-term use of <br />prime farmlands in the surrounding area (4.25.5(2)). <br />m:~nwhrzn.fd <br />22 <br />
