Lacustrine Plain is a term used to refer to a plain which originally formed as the bed of a lake (in a Lacustrine environment), but from which the water has disappeared natural drainage, evaporation or other geophysical processes. The soil left behind may be fertile and productive farmland (due to the previous accumulation of Lacustrine sediments), a wetland, or a desert.

What kind of soil is lacustrine soil?

Lacustrine soil is soil that has been deposited by lakes. It is typically characterized by its high fertility due to the accumulation of organic matter over time and can vary in texture depending on the composition of the lake sediments. Lacustrine soil is often found in areas that were once covered by glacial lakes or are currently located near freshwater bodies.
