Fertile soil is the secret behind productive agricultural lands

However, not all types of soil is suitable for growing agricultural crops. The ideal soil for cultivation depends on the amount of the 4 main elements present in it: water, air, organic components, and mineral component. Usually, sand concentrations are preferred to be between 0.05 -2 mm, silt between 0.002-0.05 mm, and clay in quantities less than 0.002 mm. the presence of these components in proportions consistent with each other helps to retain water in the soil in appropriate quantities and drain the excess, moreover helps oxygen and effective nutrients to reach the roots area, which contributes to providing the necessary support for the plants to complete their growth. The proportions of these components vary from one soil to another, and the overlap of the original soil constituent material, the time of year, The climate, the living organisms present in it, and the topography of the earth directly contributes to the formation of soil
