Surface area of the clay is higher than the sandy soil so it adsorbs/absorbs more moisture
Sandy soil is dry in comparison to clay due to lack of moisture and consistency. Sandy soil is just not wet.
BEcause sand cannot retain water, whereas clay is very good at it.
The soil in a desert is dry and sandy.
dry and sandy soil
a lack of water
clay soil has tiny pieces very close together, it feels dry.
Indian Soil :) Anyway, i presume sandy soil, rather acidic and dry.

It would get harder once they clay dry's.

it would be dry soil because wet soil is heavy . by Madison walker
Because the pore space (the space between soil particles) in sandy soil is so much larger. In sandy soils, the water is drawn by gravity downward and away from the roots quite easily, but in clay soils, the pore space is so much smaller that capillary action holds the water much more tightly. This is the same reason that clay soils flood more easily and take longer to dry out.
