Raynham soils are poorly drained. Well drained and moderately well drained. Surface runoff is slow to rapid. Permeability is moderate in the silty solum and moderately rapid to very rapid in the coarse-textured substratum. Because of the strongly contrasting texture of the substratum, the solum is commonly saturated in the lower part in the winter, spring, and after heavy rains.
Common crops are potatoes and silage corn.
Some areas are used for sod farming and for nursery stock. A few areas are in community development or are wooded. Common trees are red, white, and black oak, white ash, red maple, white pine, and red pine. The series is of moderate extent. Suffolk-Nassau Counties, New York, 1928.
