Let us start the discussion by elaborating the definition of the soil.

soil → is a mixture of minerals, organic matter, gases, liquids, and countless organisms that together support life on Earth (def. from wikipedia)

From the definition itself it is clear that soil is the rudimental part of the evolution. It is the primary base of the biosphere.

we can define various importances of soil such as

It’s a conduit/medium for plant growth → Human being/organisms is dependent on plant to fulfill his appetite and absorb oxygen which is the lifeline of the human body. so it is implicit that without soil it will be tough for human being/organisms to survive.soil absorbs the atmospheric nitrogen and fixes it to the plants hence maintaining the nitrogen cycle.
