Question

Percolation rate of water in the soil of three different places A, B
and C are 5.6 ml/min, 9.5ml/min and 1.3 ml/min respectively. The
soil of which place is best for plant growth. Give reasons.

Answer 1

Dear Student
Soil C has minimum percolation rate I.e 1.3ml/ min and hence it is clay soil and clay soil is best for plant growth.
The sandy soils have high percolation rate and they are not good for plant growth.
