Why is laterite soil highly acidic in nature?

Laterite soil is highly acidic primarily due to the leaching process, where rainfall washes away basic nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, leaving behind acidic components like iron and aluminum oxides. The weathering of minerals such as feldspar and basalt also contributes to the acidity of laterite soil as they release acidic compounds into the soil. Additionally, the high levels of iron and aluminum oxides make laterite soil prone to becoming acidic when they come into contact with water.
