Solution

Hi!

Loamy soil a mixture of sand, clay and other soil particle known as silt. This soil also has humus in it and has the right water holding capacity. Due to all these reasons this soil is considered as the best suited soil for the growth of plants.

Clayey soil, contains fine soil particles that stick to each other. Its ability to retain water is much higher than that of the other soil types
