Loam soil
Different crops use and leave different vitamins and minerals in the soil. Planting a variety of crops will maintain good amounts of nutrients in the soil.
soil exhastion
The combination of soil and sand is not healthy for plants. The mixture is too loose to hold crops and stalks still. Sand does not absorb as much water as soil, so the plants are getting half their water. Loose foundations can result to soil erosion. Sandy soil does not have the same nutrient-holding capacity as clay soils, but it is good for growing melons, yams, sweet potatoes, asparagus and tomatoes.
Clay soil is so sticky because its make-up attracts higher water content than other soils. However, clay does NOT have good drainage like that in other soils. The stickiness does NOT make clay a good soil for planting of any kind, whether food seeds or flowering plants.
Loam soil. This is soil that is loose, dark and crumbly. A soil with a lot of clay doesn't work well for plants.

Planting different crops
Planting increased cash crops improves the local economy. If not done sustainably using good land management practices, it can deplete the soil in the area, making it unproductive for future generations.

In the South because the soil in the South was very fertile and good for planting crops such as cotton.
Cover crops, planting in swirvy lines, or plant in a greenhouse! ; )
