2 AGRICULTURAL LAND CLASSIFICATION REPORT HAMPSHIRE MINERALS PLAN OMISSION SITE EATTON FARM, HORDLE Summary ADAS was ommissioned by MAFF s Land Use Planning Unit to provide information on land quality for a number of sites in Hampshire The work forms part of MAFF s statutory input to the Hampshire Minerals Plan Site ompnses approximately 9 hetares of land to the east of Hordle in Hampshire An Agriultural Land Classifiation (ALC) survey was arried out in November 99 The survey was undertaken al a detailed level of approximately one boring per hetare A total of borings and two soil inspetion pits were assessed in aordane with MAFF s revised guidelines and nteria for grading the quality of agriultural land (MAFF 988) These guidelines provide a framework for lassifying land aording lo the extent to whih its physial or hemial haralenstis impose long term limitations on its use for agnullure The work was arried out by members of the Resoure Planning Team in the Guildford Statutory Group of ADAS Al the lime of the survey the majonty of the land was in permanent grass The remainder of the site towards the west was in set aside and was overed with volunteer linseed The distribution of grades and subgrades is shown on the attahed ALC map and the areas are given in the table below The map has been drawn at a sale of It IS aurate at this sale but any enlargement would be misleading This map supersedes any previous ALC survey information for this site Tible Distribution of Gndes and Subgrides Gride Arei (hi) 8 a 9 b 9 Non-Agriultural 7 Woodland 8 Total area of Site 9 ha % of Site % %of Agriultural Land %C7 7ha)
