the top layer of the soil contains the most nutrients eg. potassium, magnesium, nitrates etc.
Short and Simple: Water helps transport minerals dissolved in the water into the roots of a plant where capliary action moves the minerals, along with the water, through the plant.

which is the best soil for plant growth.
Loam is considered to be the best kind of soil because it has enough air and water space for the roots of the plant to get air and water for the good growth of the plant.
Truncated soil is soil that has lost all or part of the upper soil horizon or horizons through erosion or excavation. This means that the topsoil that is necessary for plant growth is gone from soil that is truncated. To prepare it for plant growth, topsoil would have to be hauled in or the truncated soil would have to be "built up" by adding organic matter in order to establish another layer of topsoil.
Soil with rocks or gravel or sand are usually not suitable for plant growth.

which is the best soil for plant growth.
Generally, most plans grow roots in the top 12 inches of the soil, e.g. the topsoil layer is the most important
Black soil is best suited for the growth of cotton plant.
Loam soil is better

Good organic soil is best for most plants. But some plants prefer sand or rocky soil. Do some research to see what your plants prefer.
A timber pile is not soil, it's a pile of timber.If a substance does not support plant growth or have the capability of supporting plant growth, it is not soil.If the timber pile decomposes to a point where the remaining organic matter can support plant growth, it would be considered an organic soil, provided the layer of organic matter was thick enough. Organic soils are known as Histosols in US Soil Taxonomy.

Soil compaction creates a physical barrier to plant roots' growth in their search for more nutrients. More of the plant's energy is used up trying to push roots through this harder layer of soil.
red soil with high organic matter
The best soil is potting soil for a Lima bean growth.
