SX9793 : Grain maize stubble

near to Blackhorse, Devon, Great Britain

Grain maize stubble
Grain maize stubble
On sandy soils of the Cuckney Series, typical brown sands, the residue of maize harvested for grain, rather than for forage, affords protection from rain impact on the surface on these easily eroded soils. The view is from a 4° slope, NNW towards Sunnymead on Blackhorse Lane.
