Answer 2

Answer:

The method on which soluble minerals "dissolve" in rainwater and percolates to the bottom leaving the topsoil infertile is Leaching.

Explanation:

• Leaching is a process of "loss of water" soluble plant nutrients from the soil. This process is helpful in those areas which have high salt concentration in the soil running water took off the salt deposited on the soil particles.
• The process referred to as salinity control in agriculture. It is also an environmental concern issue because sometimes it carries harmful chemicals to the groundwater.
• The excessive leaching process should be controlled by using the organic manures, cover crops, green manures, etc.
