WMS Map: Land Use - Area Around Malone
About Land Use - Area Around Malone ....
While it's been a few years since I've been up around Malone, I was surprised to see how much of the land immediately around the village of Malone is good soils used for crop production, mostly silage and hay-ledge for dairy. Get north and west of Malone, you have more wetlands and forested areas whose shallow sandy soils have been depleted both due to historical agriculture practices and timber cutting for the iron-smelting industry at the turn of the history.
Helpful Hint: While I suggest you look on blog for a downloadable PDF Map, you should be able to print or save this map by clicking the print button on the map above.
