The area of fertile soil at the mouth of a river is called river delta.
The name given to soil deposited at the mouth of a river is called silt. The mouth of a river is called a delta.
Alluvial soil is soil that is enriched by the overflowing waters of a nearby river. This type of soil is highly fertile and rich in nutrients, making it ideal for agriculture. The deposition of silt and other nutrients carried by the river water results in alluvial soil being highly productive.
The fine soil that was deposited at the mouth of a river in Egypt was called silt.
The main factors that cause the river Ganges to flood include heavy rainfall during the monsoon season, snowmelt from the Himalayas, and deforestation leading to soil erosion and sediment accumulation in the river. Additionally, urbanization and inadequate river management infrastructure contribute to the flooding of the river Ganges.
The soil that is deposited is called silt. The landform that is often created by deposited silt at the mouth of a river is called a river delta.

The land formed by deposited soil at the mouth of a river is called a delta (named for the Greek letter, which is similarly triangular in shape).
Alluvial soil is found in the Indo-Gangetic plains, along major river basins like the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Indus. It is also found in river deltas such as the deltas of the Ganges-Brahmaputra, the Godavari, and the Krishna rivers. These regions have fertile alluvial soil due to the periodic flooding and deposition of sediments by the rivers.
