Description
The main part of this report briefly describes the location and extent, population and land use, physiography, climate, vegetation, and surficial geology of the survey area. Soil classification and mapping procedures are outlined, and the generalized distribution of soils is described in terms of physiographic subdivisions. Soil degradation, with emphasis on erosion, is also briefly described. Appendices provide more detailed technical and descriptive information. Soils are described at the most detailed level of classification, the series level, in Appendix A. The soil, map and miscellaneous units are described in some detail in Appendix B. Appendix C contains interpretive and land capability information for selected agricultural land uses, namely arable agriculture, irrigation and rangeland.
