Well aerated sandy - loam and loamy soil is ideal for growing several crops that are wheat, sugarcane, cotton, pulses, and oilseeds. Vegetables also grow well in this loam soil. Some examples of common vegetables and crops that grow well in loamy soil are tomatoes, peppers, green beans, cucumbers, onions, and lettuce.

Answer 2

Type of soil: Size of particles of soil is very important for the properties of soil. So, soils are categorized mainly in three types based on the proportion of size of particles. These are Sandy soil, Clayey soil and Loamy osil.
Sandy soil: Particles of sandy soil are larger in size. Because of larger in size, sand particles cannot fit close together and hence there is enough space among them. These spaces are filled with air. Water drains quickly through sandy soil. So, sandy soil is called well aerated, light and dry.
Sandy soil is not fit for vegetation as it does not retain water. However, millets can be grown on sandy soil.
Clayey soil: Particles of clayey soil are very small in size. This makes the particles of clayey soil packed tightly. There is very little space among the particles. Water does not drain quickly through clayey soil because of less space among particles. So, clayey soil is not well aerated and retains more water.
Clayey soil is used in making of toys. Clayey soil is good for growing paddy.
Loamy Soil: Particles of loamy soil are smaller than sand and larger than clay. Loamy soil is the mixture of sandy soil, clayey soil and silt. Silt is the deposit in river beds.
Loamy soil has right water holding capacity and is well aerated. This is considered as the best soil for the growth of plants.
