Alluvial soil is the widely prevalent soil in the earth’s surface. These are formed as a result of Silt deposits.

Explanation:

  • In India, most of the agricultural areas have alluvial soil. It has all nutrients and plant growth inhibitors that help the plant to root firmly in the ground.
  • These are formed as a result of deposition of Silt, which is a form of clay in the river beds.
  • The Indo-Gangetic plain and the Brahmaputra plains are the predominant areas of Alluvial soils in India. This is also prevalent in the coastal areas and wave movement helps in its formation.
