There are no other series in the same family. A smaller acreage is in cultivated crops, both dryland and irrigated. Platte soils are poorly suited to dryfarmed crops. Tillage operations are delayed early in spring because of wetness. In the summer, the water table recedes and the soil is droughty because there is no capillary action in the coarse textured material.
Corn is the principal cultivated crop.
Grain sorghum, alfalfa, and soybeans are grown in smaller acreage. Native vegetation is mainly big bluestem, switchgrass, prairie cordgrass, and little bluestem. In places there is a sparse stand of willow and cottonwood trees. The series is of large extent. Hall County, Nebraska, 1959.
