Bonneau soil series
A representative soil profile of the Bonneau series.
Depth Class: Very deep
Drainage Class (Agricultural): Well drained
Internal Free Water Occurrence: Deep, common
Flooding Frequency and Duration: None
Ponding Frequency and Duration: None
Index Surface Runoff: Negligible to medium
Permeability: Moderate
Shrink-swell potential: Low
Landscape: Lower, middle, and upper coastal plain
Landform: Marine terraces, uplands
Hillslope Profile Position: Summits, shoulders, backslopes
Geomorphic Component: Interfluves, side slopes
Parent Material: Marine deposits, fluviomarine deposits
Slope: 0 to 12 percent
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Loamy, siliceous, subactive, thermic Arenic Paleudults
RANGE IN CHARACTERISTICS:
Thickness of the sandy surface and subsurface layers: 20 to 40 inches
Depth to the top of the Argillic: 20 to 40 inches
Depth to the base of the Argillic horizon: 60 to 80 inches or more
Depth to Bedrock: Greater than 80 inches
Depth to Seasonal High Water Table: 40 to 60 inches, December to March
Rock Fragment Content: 0 to 15 percent, by volume, throughout
Soil Reaction: Extremely acid to slightly acid in the A and E horizons, except where limed and extremely acid to moderately acid in the B horizon
Other features: Content of silt in the particle-size control section is less than 30 percent. Some pedons have less than 5 percent plinthite nodules in the lower part of the B horizon.
USE AND VEGETATION:
Major Uses: Crops
Dominant Vegetation: Where cultivated--growing corn, soybeans, small grain, pasture grasses, and tobacco. Where wooded--mixed hardwood and pine, including longleaf and loblolly pine, white, red, turkey, and post oak, dogwood, and hickory.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT:
Distribution: Coastal Plain of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia
Extent: Moderate
