Explanation:

clayey texture and are highly fertile

the structure of these soils is cloddish or occasionally friable

rich in calcium carbonate, magnesium, potash, and lime

but poor in nitrogen and phosphorous

highly retentive of moisture, extremely compact and tenacious

when wet

contractible and develops deep wide cracks on drying

calcareous and neutral to mild alkaline in reaction, high

in carbon exchange capacity and low in organic matter

self-ploughing and comparatively less fertile on the uplands than
