Soil Types

Soil types refer to the different kinds of soil found in the environment, characterized by their composition and properties. Common types include sandy soil, which drains quickly and warms up fast; clay soil, which retains water and is very dense; and loamy soil, a balanced mix of sand, silt, and clay, offering good drainage and nutrients. Soil type affects plant growth, drainage, and how water moves through the ground. Understanding soil types helps in agriculture, gardening, and construction to ensure proper land use and management.
