95 miles NW of Quitaque, TX | I would do a search for websoilsurvey. I would find county and closest town and then map out the field.
I did find this information.
Both of these soils are shallow and then you hit parent material. Apron is 0-6" for A horizon. I hope you have irrigation. Either that are a crop that goes fast after a rain and is worth something for you.
