Why is loamy soil considered the best soil for the cultivation of plants?
This question is somewhat odd, in that loam is the name of a soil texture. This is similar to asking, "What color is red?" The texture of a loam soil is loam.Soil texture describes the mixture of the fine mineral constituents of soil. By fine mineral constituents, we mean non-organic soil particles that are smaller than 2mm in diameter. These particle sizes are divided by size into three categories: sand, silt and clay. See the first link for the range in sizes of these particles.Sand is gritty and water can move through it quickly. Silt feels like flour. Water moves through it more slowly than through sand. Clay can be molded, and may be sticky when it's wet. Water moves through clay most slowly of the particle sizes. In addition, clay tends to be more chemically active than the other particle sizes, and can enhance soil fertility as well as the ability of the soil to filter out certain substances from water.Loam soil has a nice balance of sand, silt, and clay particles, the primary constituents of soil. Loam soils tend to let excess water drain freely, but still hold moisture for plants to draw on. Fruits, vegetables, and other plants thrive in loam soil.Loam is considered the texture of soil that is most favorable to plant growth.
