SOIL
Soil is the Material in the top layer of the surface of the earth in which plants can grow.
Soil is divided into three part namely:
SANDY SOIL
Sandy soil is a loose material made up of tiny particles. These tiny particles consist of grains of rock (clay or mud). Sandy soil is not good for growing crops because it does not contain decayed animal and plants materials that should enrich the soil
CLAY SOIL
Clay soil is a very fine-grained, smooth soil that can be moulded when wet (moist) and hard when the water in it dries up.
LOAMY SOIL
Loamy soil is a rich soil consisting of a mixture of sand and clay and decaying organic materials (dead plants and animals). It is the best soil for crops growing and can hold enough water.
