⟶ Soil :-

• Soil is a material composed of five ingredients — minerals, soil organic matter, living organisms, gas, and water.
• Soil minerals are divided into three size classes — clay, silt, and sand.
• The percentages of particles in these size classes is called soil texture.
• The mineralogy of soils is diverse.

⟶ Leaching :-

• leaching is the loss of water-soluble plant nutrients from the soil, due to rain and irrigation.
• Soil structure, crop planting, type and application rates of fertilizers, and other factors are taken into account to avoid excessive nutrient loss.

⟶ Resource :-

• A resource is a source or supply from which a benefit is produced.
• Resources can broadly classified upon their availability—they are classified into renewable and non renewable resources.
• From a human perspective a natural resource is anything obtained from the environment to satisfy human needs and wants.

⟶ Conservation :-

• Conservation is the care and protection of these resources so that they can persist for future generations.
• Conservation seeks the sustainable use of nature by humans, for activities such as hunting, logging, or mining, while preservation means protecting nature from human use.
