The texture of a soil determines soil water-holding capacity, permeability, and soil workability. Sand, silt, clay, and organic matter particles in a soil combine with one another to form larger particles. Soil structure is the arrangement of the soil particles into aggregates of various sizes and shapes.

Soil structure tells us about the arrangement of soil particles with each other and the pore space located between them. It also tells us about the binding property of a soil along with its clump forming capability and aggregation quality whereas
Soil texture is defined as the weight proportion of the mineral soil except for the particles less than 2 millimeters.
