Slightly acid loamy and clayey soils with impeded drainage (8) |
« 7 | ![]() |
9 » |
Texture: | Loamy some clayey |
Drainage: | Slightly impeded drainage |
Fertility: | Moderate to high |
Land Cover: | Arable and grassland |
Habitats: | Wide range of pasture and woodland types |
Topsoil Carbon: | Low |
Mostly Drains To: | Stream network |
Water Protection Issues: | Farmed land is drained and therefore vulnerable to pollution run-off and rapid through-flow to streams; surface capping can trigger erosion of fine sediment |
General Cropping Guidance: | Reasonably flexible but more suited to autumn sown crops and grassland; soil conditions may limit safe groundwork and grazing, particularly in spring |
