This group consists of all the stony, well-drained and moderately well- 

 drained upland soils. The presence of sufficient stones to seriously interfere 

 with the use of farm machinery under modern farming methods is the sig- 

 nificant limiting factor in this soil group. The requirements of the farm 

 enterprise will determine whether it would be economically feasible to clear 

 the stones from the fields. In the event that the stones are removed, the 

 agricultural uses of the cleared areas would be the same as those listed 

 for the similar non-stony soil types. 



Major Crop Adaptations 



1 Present stony condition — 



Permanent pasture (native volunteer bluegrass and wild white clover). 

 II After stone removal — 



See Soil Management Group for the particular non-stony soil types involved.
