A map fill marking cultivated ground.
Also known as: Cultivated land symbol, Cropland map marking
On a land-use map arable ground is shown by a distinguishing fill or tint, marking land under cultivation as distinct from grassland or woodland.
Records use rather than ownership or capability, so the same field may change symbol between surveys without anything about the land itself changing.
Contexts: Maps
An area of the map filled with a regular pattern of short lines or dots distinct from the fills used for other land uses.
