Here are more detailed descriptions of the eight Land Capability Classes:
Class I is very good land with few limitations in use. It is nearly level and does not wash readily. The soil is deep and easy to work. It holds water well and is at least fairly well supplied with plant nutrients.
Class II is good land wih some limitations. It may be poorer type of soil, it may be on a steeper slope, it may have suffered some erosion, or it may require some drainage.
Class III is moderately good land for cultivation. It is limited in use more than Qass II land due to steeper slope, poorer soil, worse erosion, or poorer drainage.
Class IV land is good enough for occasional cultivation under careful management, but it is not suited for regular production of cultivated crops. If possible, it Is better left in grass.
Class V land is nearly level and not subject to erosion. However, because of wetness, shallow soil to bedrock, or rock outcrops, it is not suited for cultivation. It has a few limitations for grazing or forestry.
Qass VI land is not suitable for any cultivation. It has some limitations for grazing or forestry due to shallow soil, steep slopes, erosion, or excessive wetness. Qass VII land is not only unsuked for cultivation but has severe limita-" tions for usetxfor grazing or forestry. It requires extreme care to prevent
