Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clay-rich soil has fine-textured particles, which means it has a high water-holding capacity. When there is excessive rainfall or poor drainage, the soil can get waterlogged, leading to oxygen deficiency and suffocation of plant roots. Salinization, laterization, and gypsum formation are not directly related to clay-rich soil.
