it is called humus but don't get this confused with the humus you eat they are two different things, one is made up of dead things the other is a spread for stuff like crackers or bread
Decaying material in the soil is called, "Humus". (HYOO-muss)
The dark decaying matter in soil is called humus. Humus is a rich organic material that forms as plant and animal remains decompose, contributing to soil fertility and structure.
Humus is what the organic constituent of soil is called. It's dark brown, fresh smelling, nutrient rich organic matter. It's formed from the break down of dead and decaying animal and plant matter, and from animal waste products, in the soil.
Dead and decaying material produced in soil is called organic matter. This material consists of decomposed plant and animal residues, such as leaves, roots, and organisms, which add nutrients to the soil and improve its structure.
The composition of animal and plant matter is the reason why humus is called the organic part of soil. Something organic may be living or once-living. It will be carbon-based, as in the case of dead, decaying, dying and living animals and plants in the soil food web that humus sustains.
Decaying organic matter in the soil is called humus. When it is added to the soil deliberately, it is called compost.

The top soil. the decaying material is called humus (NOT hummus!).
The decayed organic material in soil is called detrition. This is the broken down results of leaves and other organic substances.
The composition of animal and plant matter is the reason why humus is called the organic part of soil. Something organic may be living or once-living. It will be carbon-based, as in the case of dead, decaying, dying and living animals and plants in the soil food web that humus sustains.
Decaying matter found in soil is organic material that undergoes decomposition. This process is primarily carried out by various microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, breaking down the organic matter into simpler compounds. These decomposed materials enrich the soil with nutrients essential for plant growth.
