The soil texture is important because only its mineral components will help us to know the permeability of water through them which determines the permeability of water in a particular type of soil........so it is important to know abt the texture......
particle size determines the size of the air tunnels in the soil which in turn determine the rate of water absurbsion
texture, color, what it is made up of, what horizon is it in.
Well aggregated and sandy soils have the highest water infiltration rates. Clay and compacted soils have the lowest infiltration rates.
Silt is a soil texture, or a soil particle separate. Silt textured soils are used for anything that other soils would be used for, except perhaps the mining of sand or clay.
soil texture is some what the same there are soils with coarse or rough texture and there those with fine smooth texture . soil texture is due to the size of the particles that make it up. there are 3 main types of soil particle :-sand, with coarser or larger particles-silt, with medium sized particles-clay, with the finest or smallest particles
Because it determines the ability to retain or leach water and/or nutrients. Coarse structure and a more defined texture, like in rocky or sandy soils, means that nutrients leach easily and this type of soil does not retain water. A finer texture and a finer structure, like with loamy-type soils, means that nutrients and water do not leach as easily, making this type of soil ideal for a rich plant diversity. Essentially, soil texture and structure determine the soil TYPE of a particular region or area, which in turn determines what can grow and thrive in that area.
water absorption, color, texture, and fertility
Texture, for one. Coarser soils (sandy) have much less capillary action than finer soils (clayey).
texture, color, what it is made up of, what horizon is it in.
Soil Texture - measurement of the proportion of mineral particles of different sizes that are found in the same sample of soil (sand, silt, clay).
Well aggregated and sandy soils have the highest water infiltration rates. Clay and compacted soils have the lowest infiltration rates.
Yes.
Beach sand can be in hottest condition but cannot hold it for long period. Dark soils such as potting soils can hold it for long time.
Soil is the key texture of organic farming. Organic production requires healthy soils and soil food webs. Conventional production contrastingly stresses productive soils, which may be achieved in the short term through growth-enhancing means which ultimately are environmentally unfriendly.
Silt is a soil texture, or a soil particle separate. Silt textured soils are used for anything that other soils would be used for, except perhaps the mining of sand or clay.
Compost has organic materials in it that can be used by plants as food. It also improves the texture of soils.
That it improves fertility and moisture are reasons why compost is important in keeping soil healthy. Compost is fresh-smelling and nutrient-rich so it improves soil structure and texture by aiding air pore creation as well as moisture and nutrient drainage and retention.
