Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Clay Soil. Clay’s heavy and compact structure holds moisture well and is ideal for moisture-loving plants. Many crops will thrive in this type of soil due to the high nutrient content.
Detailed explanation-2: -The actual water-holding capacity of forest soils due to the constant presence of natural moisture is approximately only 30 mm, providing 22% WHC and dampening 67–75% of EDSP [63].
Detailed explanation-3: -The sand particles have large enough space between them for passing water through it. This is the reason why sandy soil drains faster than other types of soil.
