Kanhapludult and landscape CN
Soil profile: A representative soil profile (Typic Kanhapludult) in Xinxing County, Guangdong Province, China (PRC-07).
Landscape: These soils are on gently sloping to moderately steep sideslopes and narrow lower ridges. Most are used for growing local crops such as vegetables, peanuts, or sugarcane. A few small areas are in woodland.
The central concept of the Typic subgroup of Kanhapludults is fixed on freely drained, deep soils. They have a kandic soil horizon with an accumulation of iron and aluminium oxides and low-activity silicate clays.
Typic Kanhapludults are of large extent in the Southeastern United States. The natural vegetation consisted of forest plants. Slopes range from nearly level to steep. Where slopes are suitable, many of the soils are used as cropland. The steeper soils are used as forest. Some of the soils are used as pasture or homesites.
