Haplogypsids have an accumulation of gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) within 1 meter from the soil surface (gypsic horizon). Haplogypsids have sandy textures, but a few are loamy. Haplogysipds have limited suitability for irrigated agriculture due to high gypsum contents and limited soil depth (AD112).
Haplogypsids cover 71,764 hectares, or about 1.0% of the UAE.
