Question

Arrange the following soil texture with decreasing field capacity water content.
(A) Sandy loam
(B) Sandy
(C) Silty loam
(D) Clay
E) Clay loam
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. (A), (B), (C), (D), (E)

• C. (B), (A), (C), (E), (D)
• D. (D), (E), (C), (A), (B)

Hint:

To solve textural sequence questions quickly:
- Fine textures (Clay) always have the highest water retention.
- Coarse textures (Sand) always have the lowest water retention.
Identifying (D) as the highest and (B) as the lowest immediately points to Option (D).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
