Organic Matter: Moderate (2% - 4%)
Adequate organic matter levels, common in well-managed agricultural soils.
Salinity Level: 2 - 4 (Slightly Saline)
Mild salinity, some sensitive crops may start showing signs of stress.
Impact: Sensitive plants like beans and carrots may experience reduced growth; tolerant plants generally unaffected.
Hardiness Zone: 11A (Min: 40°F, Max: 45°F)
