    Ag—0 to 61 centimeters (0.0 to 24.0 inches); black (N 2/0) loam; moderately sticky; fragments; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # NDSU1858, NDSU1859, NDSU1860, NDSU1857; moist when described;
    Oc—19 to 0 centimeters (7.5 to 0.0 inches); black (N 2/0) peat; moderately sticky; fragments; abrupt smooth boundary.; moist when described;. Soils were sampled for laboratory analysis in 15cm increments. Profile was moist to surface when sampled. Slightly saline soil. Soil crust present and sampled. XRD analysis revealed gypsum. KCI extractable iron tests were performed on 0-15 and 45-60cm increments. Both tested positive. H2s odor present in Class 2 by Dormody whiff test.
