Particle size - very tiny - less than 2 microns, 1 millionth of a meter.

Sandy soils are often considered as soils with physical properties easy to define: weak structure or no structure, poor water retention properties, high permeability, highly sensitivity to compaction with many adverse consequences.

Loam soils contain sand, silt and clay in such proportions that stickyness and non-adhesiveness are in balance - so the soils are mouldable but not sticky. Loams are the "friendliest" soils to cultivate
