Cropping systems include rotations that contain grasses and legumes as well as rotations in which the desired benefits are achieved without the use of such crops. Purpose Am. To improve or maintain good physical condition of the soil ; protect the soil during periods when erosion usually occurs; help control weeds , insects, and diseases; and meet the need and desire of farmers for an economic return. Where applicable On all cropland and on certain recreation and wildlife land. Specifications 1 . Dry Cropland a. A cropping sequence will be applied that will provide adequate residue for protection from wind and water erosion. b. Crop residues will be managed in such a way that soil loss is held to an acceptable amount. c. The Universal Soil -Loss Equation and Wind Erosion Formula will be used to determine adequacy of the cropping system. 2. Irrigated Cropland a. Soil Condition Rating Indices for Irrigated Crops, Agronomy Technical Note #52 dated March 1977, will be used to determine the adequacy of the cropping sequence and soil fertility management. Le' b.

Purpose To reduce wind velocity at the soil surface, thereby reducing soil blowing and damage to crops. To trap snow and increase stored soil moisture. Where applicable On cropland subject to soil blowing and where needed as part of a cropping system for snow catchment and moisture conservation. Specifications Follow guidance set forth in "Guide for Wind Erosion Control on Cropland in Great Plains States" (Revised 1976) , or Agronomy Technical Note #53, to calculate widths of wind strips. I. Wheat-Fallow Systems A. Strips of wheat will be planted alternately with the stubble from the previous crop; in approximately equal widths to facilitate rotation. B.

Wheat stubble in the protective strips will be left standing through the critical erosion period. (Nov. through May) . 10) E. A minimum of 35011 of residue will be left on the soil surface after planting for soils in WEC's 1, 2, 3 & 4. If the Guide for Wind Erosion Control or Technical Note #53 indicate larger amounts are needed, then those amounts should be left on the surface after planting. II. Annual Row Crop Systems A. Strips of high residue producing crops will be grown in alter- nate strips with erosion susceptible crops. Strips will be approximately perpendicular to the prevailing wind direction. B. Width and spacing of protective strips: 1. Row Crop Plants - Minimum width of protective strips will be the equivalent width of 4 rows spaced 40 inches apart. Spacing between strips will not exceed 30 feet. 2. Drilled Plants - Minimum width of protective strips will be two rows (12" - 20" spacing) and the spacing between strips will not exceed 30 feet. C. The protective crop will be harvested with a combine or mowed leaving the stubble 12 to 18 inches tall. The protective residue will be left on the soil surface through the critical wind erosion season (Nov-May) or until the seedbed is prepared for the following crop which is expected to occur in early April. Spring seedbed preparation should result in a ridged surface for wind erosion protection. III. Perennial Tall Grass Barriers A. Only tall growing species such as Tall wheatgrass, Switchgrass and Indiangrass will be planted. Range site descriptions or Critical Area Planting specifications will be used to deter- mine specie adaptation. B. Seedbed preparation will consist of only those operations necessary to assure a firm soil condition relatively free of weeds. Planting in residue from a previous crop is acceptable. • C. Seeding rate specifications will be used to determine amounts of seed to plant. D. Barriers shall consist of at least two rows of grass spaced 10-40 inches apart.

Subsurface tillage equipment such as sweeps, blades and rodweeders should be used for most tillage operations. 2. Chemical weed control to reduce the number of tillage operations is beneficial in managing the residue. 3. Reducing field widths is an effective way to reduce the need for large amounts of crop residue. 4. When inadequate residue is produced the soil surface will be ridged by chiseling or listing. II. Non-Irrigated Sorghums A. Pounds of residue required through the critical wind erosion period (November—May). Crop and Spacing Minimun Required Residue 1. Drilled sorghums on row 7501E spacing of 20" or less 2. Forage sorghum on 10001/ 20" — 40" rows 3. Grain sorghum on 1500# 20" — 40" rows When the above residue requirements are met, the practice will be considered adequate to hold the soil loss to the acceptable "T" level. B. Planning Considerations 1 . The above amounts of residue will be left on the soil surface through May or until spring seedbed preparation which usually occurs in early April. Spring seedbed preparation should result in a ridged surface for wind erosion protection. 2. When inadequate residue is produced the soil surface will be ridged by chiseling or listing. Soils coarser than sandy loam usually require listing to provide satisfactory surface roughness. 3. Grazing will be restricted on machine harvested crops when marginal amounts of residue are produced.

Most areas and soils are suitable for development as wildlife habitat. Special attention should be given to odd areas and draws in close proximity to cropland for development. Areas needing protection from erosion should also he considered for wildlife development. b. Wildlife habitat developments should, if possible, be located away from farmsteads and heavily traveled roads. c. Food should be nearby: food plots or crop residues will satisfy this requirement. d. Water should be nearby if at all possible. 3. Trees and Shrubs a. Species planted will normally be selected from the list of adapted '"^� species found in standard and specifications for Field Windbreak -yrj (392) . However, other species may be used after consultation with the State SCS Biologist, Woodland Specialist, Colorado State Forest Service District Forester, or Colorado Division of Wildlife repre- sentative. Special considerations will be given to those species that provide food. b. Spacing will normally follow standard and specifications for Farmstead and Feedlot Windbreak (380). However. local judgment will be used to: (1) Plan for wide spacing between rows if nesting cover is planned between rows. These plantings will normally be wider than 30 feet between rows. (2) Clump plantings may be used, if desired. c. Two or more species may be planted within a given row or clump. d. Replacement of trees or shrubs in a planting is not required if 70 percent or more survive. However, replanting may be necessary if survival is drastically low within a given row. e.

Nesting cover will be in close proximity to food and tree-shrub plantings. b. Existing grasses and/or forb-grass vegetation may serve as nesting or protective cover. c. Planted nesting cover may consist of grasses or grass-legume mixtures. Adapted grasses will be used. Where possible, both tall and mid-grasses will be used. 5. Other Considerations a. Livestock exclusion will he practiced. This may be done by planned deferment or by fencing. b. Maintenance will be planned. In non-irrigated plantings cultivation is recommended for a minimum of three years. Cultivations should be limited to the needs of the trees. Generally cultivation is neither necessary nor desirable after August 15. c. Where necessary and planned, weed control may consist of herbicide treatment following guidelines found in standard and specifications for Farmstead and Feedlot Windbreaks (380). d. Preservation, with fencing as necessary , may be all that is neces- sary to provide quality wildlife habitat on some areas if the basic habitat constituents,., food, cover, and water, are present. Refer to Fencing (382) for standard and specifications. Considerations for Big Game Habitat Management 1. Land designated as wildlife land for big game should have the following support data: a. Range sites. b. Range surveys, including browse surveys (SCS—Range-416) and available forage estimates. c. AUM calculations with season of use will be made considering all use by herbivores. 2. Criteria for land adequately treated and protected will be the same as for rangeland.

The soils are classified according to degree and kind of permanent limitation, but without consideration of major and generally expensive landforming that would change the slope, depth, or other characteristics of the soils; and without consideration of possible but unlikely major reclamation projects. Roman numerals are used to show the 3 broad Capability Classes and letters follow the class numeral to indicate the principal problem or hazard. Classes and sub-classes used are as follows: Class I - Few or no limitations that restrict choice of crops or require conservation measures. Class II - Some limitations that reduce the choice of crops or require moderate conservation measures. Class III - Severe limitations that reduce choice of crops or require special conservation practices or both. Class IV - Very severe limitations that restrict the choice of crops, require very careful management, or both. Class V - Not suited for cultivation but has few or no hazards when used for pasture, range, woodland or wildlife. Class VI - Not suited for cultivation. Severe limitations. Suited for range, pasture, woodland or wildlife with careful management and needed conservation practices. Class VII - Not suited for cultivation. Very severe limitations. Suited for range, woodland or wildlife uses if carefully managed. Usually cannot apply physical practices such as pitting, furrowing, seeding, etc. Class VIII - Not suited for cultivation, range, pasture or woodland. Suited only for recreation, wildlife, water supply or esthetic purposes. e - Erosion by wind or water is the major problem-. w - Excessive water such as wetness, overflow, or high water table. s - Major problem is in the soil. It may be too shallow, too heavy, stony, low in fertility, salty, alkaline or have low moisture capacity. c - Climate is the major hazard. Growing season may be very short, there is a shortage of rainfall or both. Examples: IIIe - Class III land where erosion is the major hazard. IVc - Class IV land where the climate is the major problem.
