Difference Between Bhangar and Khadar
• Largest part of Northern Plains in India is made up of deposits of old alluvium soils know as Bhangar.
• Bhangar is above the flood levels of rivers and presents a terrace like structure.
• Bhangar is full of kankars and calcareous structures
• Bhangar is not very fertile
• The area in northern plains that lies below flood levels is made up of Khadar which is new alluvium soil
• Khadar is younger alluvium as flood waters deposit new layers every year
• Khadar is very fertile and ideal for intensive cultivation
.After descending from the mountains, the rivers deposit pebbles in a narrow belt. The width of this belt is about 8 to 16 km and it lies parallel to the Shiwaliks. This region is known as bhabar. All the streams disappear in this region.
