Soil
Components
Soil Components:
Soils consist
of four major components:
(1)
mineral
(or inorganic), (2) organic, (3) water, and (4) air. The
relative proportions of these four soil components vary with
soil type and climatic conditions. Review the approximate
proportions (by volume) of the four soil components in a mineral
soil under optimum conditions for plant growth.
