Question
Intense leaching and weathering of bases like Ca, Mg
result for development of which type of soil?Solution
Leaching: This process involves the downward movement of water through the soil profile, carrying soluble nutrients and minerals with it. When bases like calcium and magnesium are leached away, the soil becomes deficient in these essential nutrients, which are important for neutralizing acids. Acid Soil Development: As these basic cations are leached out, the soil's pH decreases, leading it to become more acidic. This can significantly affect the soil structure and its suitability for various types of plant growth.
