Explanation:
It is because they get enough water through the water vapour present in the atmosphere due to a huge amount of humidity which ultimately helps in easy humus creation. As bacterias need moisture to grow , in humid areas they reproduce and increase rapidly which results in fast formation of humus.

Answer:
Humus, nonliving, finely divided organic matter in soil, derived from microbial decomposition of plant and animal substances. Humus, which ranges in colour from brown to black, consists of about 60 percent carbon, 6 percent nitrogen, and smaller amounts of phosphorus and sulfur. As humus decomposes, its components are changed into forms usable by plants.
