Question 4 of 5
4. Question
This type of soil allows crops to be grown in dry season as well due to its peculiar characteristic. Which soil is being referred here?
Correct
Answer – a
- The black soils are generally clayey, deep and impermeable. They swell and become sticky when wet and shrink when dried. So, during the dry season, these soil develop wide cracks. Thus, there occurs a kind of ‘self ploughing’.
- Because of this character of slow absorption and loss of moisture, the black soil retains the moisture for a very long time, which helps the crops, especially, the rain fed ones, to sustain even during the dry season.
