<br />~ • ~ •J <br />Windbreaks and environmental plantings are difficult to establish on <br />~' this soil due to•lack of moisture and slope. For long term survival, <br />supplemental moisture is required. Summer fallow, supplemental watering <br />during planting and early stages of growth, contour planting, and continued <br />cultivation fui weed control are needed Co insure establfahment and <br />survival of seedling. Among the trees that are suitable for planting are <br />Rocky Mountain Juniper, eastern redcedar, ponderosa pine, Siberian elm, <br />Russian-olive, and hackberry. Among the shrubs are skunkbush sumac, lilac, <br />Siberian peashrub, and American plum. <br />These soils are moderately well suited for homesite development. The <br />primary limitations are the high erosion hazard and slope which can be <br />overcome if care 1s taken during construction. <br />This map unit is in capability subclass VIe, nonirrigated.
