soil is an important natural resource. It is the top covering of the Earth surface. Soil is formed due to wear and Tear of Rocks by natural and human-made forces.
the formation of soil is related to the parent Rock material, relief, climatic conditions, natural vegetation, and animal and human activities. Find vegetal and animal remains, called humus add to the fertility of the soil. The importance of the soil lies in its fertility.
there are total 6 types of soils...
Alluvial soil is most widespread. It is found in the plains of North India and in the flood Plains and deltas of the major rivers. This soil is formed due to the deposition of sediment By The Rivers. Alluvial soil is very fertile and supports agriculture.
black soil is formed due to weathering of Volcanic rocks. Therefore, it is also called "Black Lava soil". It is made up of fine clay material and can hold moisture. This type of soil is found in the Deccan trap region and is locally called regur. Black Lava soil is best suited for cotton and sugarcane cultivation.
old igneous rocks weather to form red soil. The red soil is found in Peninsular India. The red colour of the soil is due to high carbon content. This soil can be made fertile by adding manure and chemical fertilizers.
laterite soil is formed when heavy rain wash away the fertile upper part of the soil. Therefore, this soil is less fertile. It is found in the Western Ghats and in the flat uplands where heavy rainfall occurs. Such soil can only support pastures and shrubs.
mountain soil is mainly found on the hill slopes covered with forest. This soil is formed due to the deposition of organic matter and is rich in humus. It is suitable for tea, coffee and Spices cultivation.
desert soil is found in hot and semi-arid regions. it has a thick layer of sand. This soil lacks humus content but contains a high proportion of soluble salts. With the help of irrigation, a variety of crops can be grown in the desert soil.

first of all let recall that what is soil....
the top most layer of earth in which we grow plants , this is basically what we call soil. it is basically dark brown in colour which us a mixture of different organic material.
》 This is a very light weighted soil. less rich in nutrients and it has less water holdingcapacity. They get warm up easily.
This type of soil is mostly available in deserts .
》 It has high water holding capacity. this kind of soil has a heavy weight as it rich in nutrients.
it has 25 to 30 percent of clay in it. this type of soil takes too much time to get warm up .
》 this type of soil has huge amount of moisture with a high fertility. they can be get washed easily in the rain . They can hold moisture well.
》 they are high in organic matter and can hold water for a long time. it has a large amount of moisture content. for planting it is used in gardens .
》 this is a mixture of various types of soils especially of sand , silt and clay . this soils are fertile and can hold water easily . this type of soil is mostly used in gardens to grow plants.
