Photograph of Roy McMertry's Farm pasture deep plowed to prevent wind erosion. The back of the photograph proclaims, "A large field subject to server wind erosion recently deep plowed. Note large chunks of soil brought to the surface by deep plowing. This mechanical practice gives temporary resistance to wind erosion on this type of deep sandy soil (Soil Unit 12). Widespread use of this practice is not recommended by the Soil Conservation Service. Vegetative control measures, that improve the physical structure of the soil, should be given first consideration."
