The potential for surface water runoff is medium on the gentle slopes and high on the steeper slopes. Permeability is moderate in the upper part of the solum, moderately slow in the lower part of the solum, and slow or very slow in the underlying till. An intermittent perched high water table is at a depth of 2 to 3.5 feet in most years. Most areas are used to grow corn, soybeans, small grain, and hay. Much of the more sloping part is in permanent pasture or forest.
Native vegetation is deciduous forest.
