topsoil.
The layer that contains the most humus and smaller rocks is the topsoil layer. Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil that is rich in organic matter, such as humus, and contains smaller rock particles that have undergone weathering. It is the most fertile layer of soil and is crucial for plant growth.
The top layer of soil, called the O horizon or organic layer, contains humus. Humus is a dark, organic material that forms as plant and animal matter decomposes. It is rich in nutrients and helps improve soil structure and fertility.
All soil contains some humus. If it doesn't it is not soil.
The C and R horizon
Soil that contains humus is known as humus soil. Humus is a dark, organic material that forms when plant and animal matter decomposes. Humus soil is rich in nutrients and helps improve soil structure, drainage, and fertility. It is important for healthy plant growth and biodiversity in the soil.
The layer of soil that has little or no humus in it is the subsoil. The top layer of the soil has the most humus in it because the dead leaves fall from the plant and go back into the soil. Water and sun also help give the plant humus.
bed rock
Humus is located in the top layer of soil. It is a type of organic soil matter and aids in nutrition retention in the soil.
the O-Horizon is the topmost soil so it has the most humus
The least fertile layer of soil is usually the bedrock layer, which is the solid rock beneath the soil horizons. Since bedrock contains few nutrients and is not suitable for plant roots to penetrate, it is not conducive to plant growth.
The layer of Earth with the greatest amount of decayed material is the topmost layer, known as the soil layer or the humus layer. This layer contains organic matter formed from the decomposition of plants and animals, contributing to soil fertility.
