What 5 different soils contain

There has always been disputable conversations at times over the condition of soils to use for planting.Now bare in mind there are 5 different types of soil and they all have a different colour and they differ in nutrients. The main people who were the experts were the farmers because they grew a lot of different types of vegetables and all will know that they also grow a tremendous amount of wheat, barley ,maize. It is a well known thing that farmers always use animal &cow manure and also very often manganese when they think it is required. It is not very often farmers have a bad crop unless there has been to much rain at the wrong time of the year. You might now be interested in the following info on what the 5 different soils contain.

BROWN SOIL

ORANGE SOIL

RED SOIL
derives from iron rich sedimentary rock.Because of the lack of nutrients this soil is not good for growing plants or trees unless in a warm climate.

PURPLE SOIL
A high amount of manganese in soil causes it to turn a dark puplish-black colour. This soil is good for plant life because it is rich in nutrients.

YELLOW SOIL
Can be found in areas where acidic rock(like granite and schist) is plentifuf.Rainfall causes minerals to leave the ground leaving the soil lacking of nutrients.
