Answer:
hey friend your answer is
Explanation:
The water holding capacity of a soil is a very important agronomic characteristic. Soils that hold generous amounts of water are less subject to leaching losses of nutrients or soil-applied pesticides.
The water holding capacity is highest in clayey soil because it is made up of very small tightly packed particles that do not allow water to percolate.
Hence The water holding capacity is the highest in Clayey soil.
So, the correct answer is 'Clayey soil'.
hope it helps you
