Clayey Soil                                                                     Sandy Soil

Contains finer particles                                             Contains larger particles

Particles are tightly packed                                Particles are loosely packed

It is fertile                                                              It is not fertile

High water retention capacity                          Low water retention capacity

Lowest percolation rate of water                          Highest percolation of water
