Stavely Alberta Information

Stavely is a town in southern Alberta, Canada. It is located 110 kilometres (68 mi) south of Calgary on Highway 2 and 16 km (9.9 mi) east of Willow Creek Provincial Park. Stavely was named for Alexander Staveley Hill, managing director of the Oxley Ranching Company that was founded in 1882[5] by John R Craig on 100,000 acres of grazing rights.[6] The Canadian Pacific Railway once ran through the town. Its closure led to the removal of all but one of Stavely’s grain elevators. The people of Stavely and the area are proud of their friendliness and community spirit.[5] In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, the Town of Stavely had a population of 544 living in 269 of its 287 total private dwellings, a change of 0.6% from its 2016 population of 541. With a land area of 1.78 km2 (0.69 sq mi), it had a population density of 305.6/km2 (791.5/sq mi) in 2021.[3] In the 2016 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, the Town of Stavely recorded a population of 541 living in 265 of its 290 total private dwellings, a 7.1% change from its 2011 population of 505. With a land area of 1.83 km2 (0.71 sq mi), it had a population density of 295.6/km2 (765.7/sq mi) in 2016.[7] Stavely is known as the home of the Stavely Indoor Rodeo. Founded in 1929, it is the world’s first indoor rodeo.[8] In 1996 the miniseries In Cold Blood was filmed in Stavely. In 2012 the community celebrated its 100th birthday. The town has a 9-hole golf course named the Stavely Golf Club. It was one of the few remaining sand green golf courses in Canada[8] until the sand greens were recently converted to artificial greens.[citation needed] Other recreation venues and facilities include an arena, archery lanes, a recreational vehicle campground, a ball diamond, and parks. Stavely is also home to a museum. The Pine Coulee Reservoir, a popular place for recreation and camping,[citation needed] is 5 km (3.1 mi) west of Stavely. Clear Lake recreation area (camping/water sports) is located 19 km east of Stavely. Willow Creek Municipal Park (campground) is located 16 km west of Stavely. Stavely’s only school, Stavely Elementary School, teaches local children from Kindergarten through Grade 6.[9] The school was renovated in 2002,[10] and its school motto is Every Child Shines. Prior to the 2002 renovation, grades 7-9 students attended A. J. Nowicki Jr. High School, which has been demolished. The Stavely Education Foundation has been established to assist former students with the costs of post-secondary education. The following is a list of the Town of Stavely’s volunteer community organizations and service groups.[11] Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stavely

Understanding Topsoil Depth in Alberta: Insights from AAFC SLC Version 3.2 Data

Topsoil depth is a critical factor for agricultural productivity, influencing water retention, nutrient availability, and root growth. The provided map of Alberta illustrates the topsoil depth in inches, highlighting significant regional variations. This analysis is based on data from the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) Version 3.2.

Key Observations

The topsoil depth in Western Alberta and the Rockies is generally shallow, ranging from 0 to 6 inches. This is due to the rugged terrain and erosional processes associated with mountainous regions. The shallow topsoil in these areas supports forests and natural vegetation rather than extensive agriculture.

Central Alberta, including areas around Edmonton and Red Deer, exhibits moderate to deep topsoil depths, generally between 8 to 14 inches. These depths are conducive to productive agriculture, supporting a variety of crops. The deeper topsoil in central regions contributes to higher agricultural yields and sustainable farming practices.

In Southern and Eastern Alberta, regions such as Calgary and areas towards the Saskatchewan border show variable topsoil depths ranging from 6 to 10 inches. While suitable for agriculture, these areas may require careful soil management to maintain productivity. Areas with shallower topsoil are more drought-resistant and may need irrigation and soil conservation practices.

Regional Analysis

The Rocky Mountain Influence is evident in the shallow topsoil of the Rocky Mountain foothills, resulting from the rocky and rugged terrain, limiting soil accumulation. These areas are more suited to forest growth and natural vegetation rather than intensive agriculture.

In contrast, the Prairie Conditions in central Alberta benefit from moderate to deep topsoil, which is ideal for crop production and supports Alberta’s agricultural economy. Maintaining topsoil depth through conservation practices is essential for sustaining long-term agrarian productivity in these areas.

Implications for Agriculture

Understanding topsoil depth is crucial for effective soil management practices, including crop selection, irrigation, and fertilization. Farmers can use this data to optimize their farming practices, choosing crops suited to the available topsoil depth and implementing appropriate soil conservation measures. Deeper topsoil improves water retention and nutrient availability, which is essential for healthy crop growth and high yields.

Conclusion

The topsoil depth map of Alberta reveals significant regional variations influenced by geographical features such as the Rocky Mountains and the fertile plains of central Alberta. Understanding these variations is crucial for optimizing agricultural practices and ensuring sustainable farming. By leveraging this data, farmers can improve crop yields, manage soil health, and enhance overall agrarian productivity in Alberta.
