What is New Hampshire's land like?

Answer 1

New England's land and climate are not ideal for farming. A relatively short growing season and rocky ground that is difficult to clear lends itself to small farms and a limited type of crops.

Answer 2

In terms of farming it would be called hard Scrabble: Rocky, infertile and thin. The last Ice Age was generally unkind to New England and peeled off much of the topsoil on its way to the sea. Annual crops lack an adequate root system for decent crop production in shallow soils with such a short growing season.

The terrain itself is rugged but beautiful and while the White Mountains lack the grand stature of the Sangre de Cristos they make up for it in the variety of hardwoods and they are a sight to behold in the fall and winter.

Answer 3

New Hampshire's land features diverse geography, including mountains, forests, rivers, lakes, and coastline. The White Mountains in the north offer outdoor recreation opportunities, while the southern region is characterized by rolling hills and farmland. The state is known for its scenic beauty and outdoor activities.

Answer 4

No because glacial activity scoured larger areas of its topsoil and left a thin and rocky soil behind it was left with little arable land.
