In my area the natural organic matter was around .5 %. It's rare to find anything much over 1% even after being farmed for 40 years. In this area we only get 6" of annual rainfall. We are also pivot irrigated and do not do the extensive tillage that the surface irrigation guys do. We need to keep some trash to prevent wind erosion.
