Answer:
Its red colour is mainly due to ferric oxides occurring as thin coatings on the soil particles while the iron oxide occurs as haematite or as hydrous ferric oxide. When it occurs in the hydrate form as limonite the soil gets a yellow colour.

Answer:
Soil color is produced by the minerals present and by the organic matter content. Yellow or red soil indicates the presence of oxidized ferric iron oxides. Dark brown or black color in soil indicates that the soil has a high organic matter content. I HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU
