Odell and Randolph soils are somewhat poorly drained and on lower positions of the landscape. In addition, Randolph soils are on areas where bedrock is less than 40 inches. The moderately well drained Xenia soils have more than 18 inches of loess and are on adjacent landscapes. Moderately well drained. Runoff is slow on the nearly level areas and medium on sloping areas.
Permeability is moderately slow above the dense till, and very slow in the dense till.
A large part is under cultivation. Principal crops are corn, soybeans, wheat, oats and meadow of legumes or legume-grass mixtures. Local areas are used for growing vegetables. A relatively small part is in permanent bluegrass pasture or in woodland. The original vegetation was deciduous forest, principally oaks, maple, elm, hickory and ash.
