Explanation:

In the higher parts, it is suitable for growing bazra, groundnut and Potato whereas in low lying areas, rice, ragi and vegetables are grown in it. These soils are rich in iron, magnesium and aluminium compounds, but poor in lime, humus, nitrogen and phosphoric acid

Ferric oxide is a chemical present in soil that gives dirt a distinctive red color, and plants can absorb iron from this chemical. Iron is also present in decomposing plant matter, so adding compost to your soil or even allowing dead leaves to collect on the surface can help to add iron to your plants' diet.
