The Nechako Association has developed on silty alluvium. The total area
is arable and is a fairly good agricultural soil. The location of these soils only
slightly above river level makes them subject to frost. Consequently, they
are best suited to the clovers or timothy.

There is in addition to the Associations mentioned a class of undifferentiated
alluvial soils, a large part of which is arable and very productive. They are
in general quite similar to the Nechako Association.
