Laterite soil develops in areas with high temperature and heavy rainfall.
Humus content of the soil is low because most of the microorganisms particularly decomposers like bacteria get destroyed due to high temperature .
It is suitable for cultivation with adequate doses of manual and fertilizers.
It is rich in iron oxide and potash.

Laterite soil occurs mostly in tropics, that is, areas with high humidity and heavy rainfall. Generally reddish or yellowish,it is poor in certain nutrients as these get washed away. However, coffee, teak, rubber, coconut and areca nut grow well on such soils.
