As the rivers flow they carry with them the minerals and salts that are present in the surrounding. Those minerals are deposited on plain lands which make them fertile and suitable for cultivation.

Overflowing rivers and floods can leave the fertile soil because rivers can carry the minerals, salt and other natural fertilizers, and they can make the surface fertile.
Similarly, during floods, rivers are connected with the roadways and waters can enter in the normal areas.
They can leave minerals and salts behind a fertile layer of soil.
Even you can also find fertile soil on the bank of rivers that can be used for harvesting the crops.
