These deep sandy soils differ from Group 12 in that they contain 

 more fine material (silt and clay) and are not as droughty. The moisture 

 relationships are not the best, however, for crops definitely suffer during 

 dry weather. The parent materials of these soils were water-deposited during 

 geologic times, but they are not generally subject to overflow from present- 

 day streams. Water moves through the soils very rapidly. This Soil Man- 

 agement Group is slightly better for crops than Group 12. Crop rotations 

 should be fairly short on these soils. They can be improved by soil-build- 

 ing crops as an aid in providing organic matter to increase their pro- 

 ductive capacity. Irrigation possibilities should be investigated to provide 

 better moisture relations.
