Answer:
Texture is defined as the proportion of sand, silt, and clay in the soil. High clay content increases CEC and thus the ability to hold nutrients, while high sand content decreases the CEC and nutrient holding capacity. ... Drainage and aeration have effects on nutrient loss and solubility.
Crop production is affected by a number of abiotic factors including temperature, salinity, drought, pesticides, pH of the soil, and heavy metals as they affect all metabolic activities of the plant. When the plant is unable to grow normally, it is said to be affected by water deficit.
