Roche Percee Saskatchewan Information

Roche Percee /r?? p?r?se?/ (2021 population: 75) is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the RM of Coalfields No. 4 and Census Division No. 1. The village is near the Canada–United States border, just off Highway 39. Roche Percee is about 20 kilometres (12 mi) east of Estevan in the Souris River valley.[1][2] In 1872, the Boundary Commission travelled through this area while surveying the Canada–United States border between Canada and the United States. During the 1874 March West trek of the North-West Mounted Police, the force established its first camp (called Short Creek Camp) at this location. Short Creek[3] is a tributary of the Souris River and it meets the river on the west side of Roche Percee. In 1890, the federal government opened a post office serving the Roche Percee area, under the name of “Coalfields”. Renamed “Roche Percée” in 1896, it closed in 1897, but re-opened in 1905. It permanently closed in 1970.[4] The community began being served by the Soo Line in 1893, permitting the coal mines in the region to become operational. Roche Percee incorporated as a village on January 12, 1909.[5][6] La Roche Percee Provincial Historic Site is located nearby. Referred to by local residents as “the Rocks”, it has large sandstone deposits in which some caves have formed. The name of the village comes from the Métis French name of the rock formations.[7][5] Another similar formation Percé Rock is in Quebec. In 2010, the provincial government signed an agreement with Southeast Tour & Trails Inc. to restore Roche Percee Park after being closed for over a decade.[8] In 2011, flooding on the Souris River inundated the village, forcing its residents to evacuate.[9][10] Of the 64 homes in Roche Percee, 28 were damaged beyond repair, and had to be demolished.[11] In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Roche Percee had a population of 75 living in 36 of its 48 total private dwellings, a change of -31.8% from its 2016 population of 110. With a land area of 2.87 km2 (1.11 sq mi), it had a population density of 26.1/km2 (67.7/sq mi) in 2021.[14] In the 2016 Census of Population, the Village of Roche Percee recorded a population of 110 living in 45 of its 50 total private dwellings, a -39.1% change from its 2011 population of 153. With a land area of 2.83 km2 (1.09 sq mi), it had a population density of 38.9/km2 (100.7/sq mi) in 2016.[15] Media related to Roche Percee at Wikimedia Commons Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roche_Percee

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.
