Map Unit Description(Brief,Generated)---Prowers County,Colorado West Farm Pit <br /> Component: Las Animas(5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The Las <br /> Animas soil is a minor component. <br /> Map Unit: Ld—Las clay loam, clay substratum <br /> Component: Las, clay substratum (90%) <br /> The Las, clay substratum component makes up 90 percent of the map unit. <br /> Slopes are 0 to 1 percent. This component is on terraces, flood plains. The <br /> parent material consists of clayey alluvium from irrigation water over sandy <br /> alluvium over clayey alluvium. Depth to a root restrictive layer is greater than 60 <br /> inches. The natural drainage class is somewhat poorly drained. Water movement <br /> in the most restrictive layer is moderately low. Available water to a depth of 60 <br /> inches(or restricted depth) is moderate. Shrink-swell potential is moderate. This <br /> soil is occasionally flooded. It is not ponded.A seasonal zone of water saturation <br /> is at 24 inches during March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October. <br /> Organic matter content in the surface horizon is about 1 percent. This component <br /> is in the R067BY035CO Salt Meadow ecological site. Nonirrigated land capability <br /> classification is 4w. Irrigated land capability classification is 4w. This soil does not <br /> meet hydric criteria. The calcium carbonate equivalent within 40 inches, typically, <br /> does not exceed 10 percent. The soil has a moderately saline horizon within 30 <br /> inches of the soil surface. The soil has a maximum sodium adsorption ratio of 3 <br /> within 30 inches of the soil surface. <br /> Component: Las Animas (5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The Las <br /> Animas soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Glenberg (5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Glenberg soil is a minor component. <br /> Map Unit: Lm—Las clay loam, saline <br /> Component: Las, saline(90%) <br /> usDA Natural Resources Web Soil Survey 8/15/2018 <br /> Conservation Service National Cooperative Soil Survey Page 3 of 7 <br />
