Answer 2

Answer:

Soil types

Clay soils are heavy, high in nutrients, wet and cold in winter and baked dry in summer.

Sandy soils are light, dry, warm, low in nutrients and often acidic.

Silt soils are fertile, light but moisture-retentive, and easily compacted.

Loams are mixtures of clay, sand and silt that avoid the extremes of each type.
