Question

Black soil is called soil of cotton. Give reason.

✓

Answer

Black soil has the property to hold moisture for a long time.
In the rainy season, black soil becomes sticky and soil wet. While in summer, the upper layer of black soil becomes dry.
The soil starts cracking in summer and hence it ploughs itself naturally.
Such soil is favourable for growing cotton.
Therefore, black soil is called soil of cotton.
