The soil moisture control section Is moist <br />for longer periods of time during the summer than the winter. <br />Soil Temperature: 43 to 59 degrees F. <br />Depth to calcic horizon: 24 to 35 inches. <br />A horizon: <br />Hue: 10YR or 7.5YR <br />Value; 3 to 5 dry, 3 or 4 moist <br />Ohroma: 2 to 4 <br />Texture: loam or clay loam <br />Bw horizon: <br />Hue: 5YR, 7.5YR, or 10YR <br />Value: 4 to 6 dry, 3 to 5 moist <br />Chroma: 3 to 6 <br />Texture; loam or clay loam <br />Bk horizon: <br />Hue: 5YR, 7.5YR, or 10YR <br />Value: 5 to 8 dry, 4 to 7 moist <br />Chroma: 3 to 5 <br />Texture: loam, silty clay loam, clay loam, or sandy clay loam <br />Calcium carbonate: 15 to 56 percent with more than 5 percent visible carbccnates. <br />COMPETING SERIES: These are the Abra (A7), B ghams (AZ), Bowdish NCO), <br />Copeman (VVY), Creel (NM), Harvey (NI M), Hernandez (NM), Honiu (LIT), Numa <br />(CO) and Pultney (CO) series. Abra soils do not have a cambic horizon and have a <br />calcic horizon at a depth of less than 20 inches. gigharns, Bowdish, Creel, and <br />Pultney .sails have a lithic ar paralithic contact at 20 to 40 inches. Copeman, Harvey, <br />and Honlu soils have a calcic horizon at a depth of less than 24 inches. Hernandez <br />soils are 9 to 12 inches deep to the calcic horizon, Numa soils do not have a cambic <br />horizon and in addition are moist for longer periods in the spring. <br />GEOGRAPHIC SETTING: Garvey soils are on hills, fan terraces and valley fills, <br />Slope is 0 to 5 percent. The soils farmed in alluvium derived from calcareous <br />sandstone and shale and limestone. The elevation is 4,500 to 6,500 feet. The <br />mean annual precipitation is 10 to 13 inches, but has ranged to 17 inches in the <br />past. They mean annual sail temperature ranges from 48 to 59 degrees F. The frost - <br />free period is about 156 to 190 days. <br />GEOGRAPHICALLY ASSOCIATED SOILS: These are the Aspalras, Dean La <br />Fonda, Pastura, and the competing Harvey sails. Asparas soils have an argillic <br />PLAne 31 of 44 date: W1111�6 <br />
