Which two properties of sandy soils influence cultivation practices?
it is used for construction
Do clay soils have more permeability than sandy soils?
No, sandy soils have higher permeability than clay soils. Clay soils have smaller pore spaces which restrict water movement, while sandy soils have larger pore spaces that allow for more rapid water drainage.
What is the color of hydro?
clay soils, loamy soils and sandy soils
Why are sandy soils generally less fertile than clayey soil?
Sandy soils are generally less fertile than clay soils because they do not hold water as well as clay soils. Clay soils are usually fertile and hold more nutrients than sandy soils.

Where in the UK are sandy soils found?
no where
Why do clay and organic soils hold nutrient better then sandy soils?
Clay and organic soils hold nutrients better then sandy soils because the sandy soils as the water drains away, the water will carry the nutrients with it. This is called leaching and the nutrients will not be available for the plants to use.
How do clay soils differ from sandy soils?
Clay soils have smaller particles and hold more water and nutrients, making them more fertile but prone to compaction. Sandy soils have larger particles, drain quickly, and don't retain much water or nutrients, making them less fertile but easier to work with.
How are clay soils and sandy soils different?
they are different because caly soil can hold water extremley well but sandy soil holds water poorly
Why clay soil are fertlie than sandy soil?
Clay soils hold more nutrients, while sandy soils quickly have their nutrients leached by rain.
What are desert soils?
Desert soils are typically sandy or sandy-loam soils with low organic matter content. They have low moisture retention capacity and are often nutrient-poor. These soils are formed through the weathering of rocks and minerals in arid environments.
How do you fertilise sandy soil?
You should either fertilize sandy soils with slow release fertilizers, like organic fertilizers, or add nutrients slowly with irrigation water. Sandy soils have less ability to hold nutrients than other soils, and soluble nutrients can leach out very quickly.
