Slope gradients are commonly 0 to 4 percent and range to 6 percent. The soils formed in silt loam calcareous loess. These are the Sylvan , Reesville , and Ragsdale soils. The Sylvan soils are well drained, lack mottles, and are typically on steeper sideslopes. Reesville soils are somewhat poorly drained, have grayer profiles and typically are on broad flats.
Ragsdale soils have mollic epipedons, are very poorly drained and are in concave positions.
Moderately well drained. The potential for surface water runoff is low or medium. Permeability is moderately slow. Depth to an intermittent apparent high water table is 2 to 3.5 feet from December to April in most years. Soils are mostly cultivated.
