Question

note on red and yellow soil...​

Answer 1

Red Soil and Yellow Soil

These distinct soils are named after their hues. Red soil gets its colour from the iron found in its composition in a crystallized form. The soil takes on a yellow colour when it is hydrated. These soils are generally found in the Western Ghats, Odisha and Chattisgarh.

The clay form of red soil is nutrient rich and viable for forestation. However coarse red or yellow soil has been completely leached of all its nutrients and is not fertile. Red soil actually has a very low level of humus and require fertilizers when used for farming.
