Soil composition and quality

Here’s a detailed look at the composition and quality of the soil at the stud farm, located in the heart of the Pays d’Auge.

Regional geological context

Chalk and clay substratum: the Pays d’Auge is underlain by Upper Cretaceous formations (flinty marly chalk) covered by a mantle of alterites containing flinty clays and loessic silts.
Clayey Jurassic hills in the foreland areas, covering the surrounding valleys.

Typical soils around the stud farm

Loessic silts dominant on the plateaus, several meters thick: poorly leached soils, sometimes slightly podzolic. These silty layers rest on flint clay, a source of moderate natural drainage.
These soils are therefore clay-loam, with a texture that is both retentive (thanks to the clay) and draining (thanks to the silt and flint).

Types properties and agricultural use

Clay-limestone soil (locally called terrefort): a deep, calcium-rich clay/plaster mixture with good water retention and a texture ideal for livestock farming.

In meadows and wooded areas:

Brunisols (brown soils) predominate under forest cover (~47%)
Hydromorphic soils (~29%) in wetter areas
Podzols and calcosols also present on limestone slopes or outcrops
