Loam soils contain sand, silt and clay in such proportions that stickyness and non-adhesiveness are in balance - so the soils are mouldable but not sticky. Loams are the "friendliest" soils to cultivate. Clays can absorb and hold onto large amounts of water because of their sheet structure and large surface area
