The Red soil is formed mainly due to the presence of igneous rocks that occur because of heavy rainfall, and it can be an ideal characteristics for farming as it requires low moisture content in the soil and is less fertile when compared to other soil.

Hey! Red soil is formed by the denudation of igneous rocks!!
denution means= denudation involves the processes that cause the wearing away of the Earth's surface by moving water, by ice, by wind and by waves, leading to a reduction in elevation and in relief of landforms and of landscapes.
WHAT!?

I don’t know that it’s any more suitable to dry farming than any other kind of soil. What I do know is that it is considered a rather poor kind of soil. It is supposedly the main reason farmers in the South took to growing tobacco. It was profitable, to be sure, but it is also one of the few crops that grows well in the red soils of the area. In other areas of the county with richer soils, it was more profitable to grow corn and wheat than tobacco. I’m not sure that’s as true today with all the modern agricultural products to modify and fertilize different soils.
if you are satisfy with my ans then mark me as a brainlist.
if there is something wrong then kindly rectify it.
