What Are the principle components of soil?
Air and water make up about half the volume of soil, with the proportions varying depending on the most recent rain and how quickly the soil drains. The other half is mostly particles of sand, silt, and clay, in various proportions depending on how the parent rock was weathered and what forces--water or wind--deposited the soil where it lies. Humus and organic matter make up only about 5% of the soil volume. In a really good organic garden soil, the organic matter fraction may be as high as 10-12%.
