Surface Soil Type: Loam
Family name: Very fine, isohyperthermic, Typic Hapludalfs
Soils developed from basalt rocks It has a very fine texture with more than 65 clay It is a typical typic representative of the great group Hapludalfs an old soil which has a high base status and an illuvial accumulation of clay in the subsoil horizons from underlying horizons alf Alfisol exhibits minimum complexity in its horizonation hapl and found in areas of humid climate that have well distributed rainfall and have enough rain in summer ud Udic thus have adequate moisture for crop growth The mean annual temperature is higher than 22C isohyperthermic
