Question

why forest soil is also known as mountain soil

Answer 1

Dear student,

Here is the answer:

The forest soil is found in the hilly and mountainous areas where sufficient rain forests are available. The soils texture varies according to the mountain environment where they are formed. They are loamy and silty in valley sides and coarse grained in the upper slopes. Thus forest soil is also known as mountain soil.
