Following are the properties of clayey soil:
- It has very good water holding capacity.
- It is rich in organic matter.
For growing crops such as wheat, gram, and paddy, the soil that is good at retaining water and rich in organic matter is suitable. Therefore, clayey soils having these characteristics are useful for such kind of crops.
