  • PAGE 1 OF 16 NONTECHNICAL SOIL DESCRIPTIONS Morrill County, Nebraska Nontechnical soil descriptions describe soil properties or management considerations specific to a soil map unit or group of map units, shown in the NonTechnical Descriptions report. These descriptions are written in terminology that Non−technical users of soil survey information can understand. Nontechnical soil descriptions are a powerful tool for creating reports. These high quality, easy to read reports can be generated by conservation planners and other NRCS employees for distribution to land users. Soil map unit descriptions and National Soil Information System records are the basis for these descriptions. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ AaB Alice Loamy Fine Sand, 0 To 3 Percent Slopes Alice soil makes up 100 percent of the map unit.
