Video transcript
dear students let us discuss the question list the differences between clay soil and sandy soil so in clay soil it has finer particles whereas sandy soil it has larger particles so let us write down the first point the first point is clay soil contains finer particles whereas sandy soil contains larger particles now let us discuss the second point here in clay soil particles are tightly packed whereas in sandy soil particles are loosely packed so let us write down particles are tightly packed but in sandy soin it is loosely packed particles are loosely packed let us discuss the third point clay soil is fertile whereas sandy soil is not fertile that means we cannot grow crops in sandy soil so let us write down it is fertile sandy soil it is not fertile it is not fertile let us discuss the next one water retention is high in clay soil and in sandy soil there is low water retention capacity so let us write down high water retention capacity [Music] and your low water retention capacity low water retention capacity let's discuss the last point here in clay soil lowest percolation rate of water whereas in sandy soil it is highest percolation of water so let us write down lowest percolation rate of water and here in sandy soil this highest percolation rate of water great thank you
