Soil is defined as an important natural resource that covers much of the earth’s surface, as life in the earth depends on soil as a direct or indirect source of food. For example, plants are rooted in the soil, and they obtain nutrients (nutrients), and animals also obtain nutrients from Plants, or of animals that eat plants

The type of soil in an area helps determine the ability of crops to grow in it. Soil forms slowly and is easily destroyed and therefore must be maintained so that it can continue to support life. Soil scientists use the term polypidons for different masses of soil in a particular geographical area.
