(45 to 57 degrees F.) <br />Mean Annual Precipitation: 35 to 56 centimeters (14 to 22 inches) <br />Frost -free period: 135 to 210 days <br />Thornthwaite Annual PE Index: 25 to 40 <br />GEOGRAPHICALLY ASSOCIATED SOILS: These are the Keith, Manter, Richfield, and Uly5ses soils. <br />Keith soils are in the fine -silty textural family and on adjacent tableland plains. <br />Manter soils are in the coarse -loamy textural family and on simf7ar landscape positions. <br />Richfield soils are in the fine textural family and on adjacent tableland plains. <br />Ulysses soils do not have argilfic horizons and are on adjacent tableland plains. <br />DRAINAGE AND SATURATED HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY: <br />Drainage: well drained <br />RunolE low to medium <br />Saturated hydraulic conductivity: moderately high <br />USE AND VEGETATION: Most areas of Satanta soils are cultivated. Some ofthe acreage is irrigated. <br />Wheat and grain sorghum are the principal dryland crops. When irrigated, the principal crops are wheat, gram <br />https : / /soilseries.sc.egovusda.goVOSD Docs /SISATANTkhM 4/5 <br />
