Answer:
hey your answer..
Explanation:
Features of yellow soil:
(i) These soils are loamy in deep depressions and in uplands. They consist of loose gravels and highly coarse materials.
(ii)The colour of these soils is generally red, often grading into brown, chocolate or yellow. The red colour is due to wide diffusion rather than high percentage of iron content. It looks yellow when it occurs in a hydrated form.
(iii) These Soils are deficient in phosphoric acid, organic matter and nitrogenous materials but are fairly rich in potash. But crops are cultivated with the use of fertilizers.

Answer:
These soils often have poorer drainage than red soils. The iron compounds in these soils are in a hydrated form and therefore do not produce the 'rusty' colour
