a. Farmland classes: P = Prime Farmland; N = not classified as farmland; U = unique farmland; SI = farmland of statewide importance; P(I) = prime 

prime farmland if irrigated and either protected from flooding or not frequently flooded during the growing season; P(D) = prime farmland if draine

b. Includes soils that have paralithic bedrock within 60 inches of the soil surface. Where “undefined”, type of restrictive layer not defined by NRCS. c. Includes soils that have clay loam or finer textures in somewhat poor, poor, or very poor drainage classes.
