Soils of the Eastern United States and Their Use, Vol. 16: The Dekalb Silt Loam (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Soils of the Eastern United States and Their Use, Vol. 16: The Dekalb Silt Loam
Upon the more lp-ing areas of the Dekalb silt loam and fre quently around the margins Of any area Of the type there is liable to be some difficulty experienced on account Of erosion. The major streams which flow out from the Plateau and many Of their smaller tributaries have trenched deeply into the upland surface, and the headwaters of all of these streams are eroding rapidly. There is a constant tendency, thus, to invade the more level plateau surface and toward the removal of both soil and subsoil material. Within the larger areas of the type there is little danger from erosion, owing to the level or gently rolling surface of the soil. In order to prevent the further destruction of areas of the type from marginal erosion, it is most desirable that all steeply lp-ing areas should be left in forest and woodlot or devoted, upon the gentler slopes, to the pro duction of grass for pasturage. Under cultivation the soft, silty soil is otherwise easily removed by flowing water.
