Discussion
Which of the following statements is true ?
Answer: A
The true statement is that soil with low water holding capacity has good aeration and high percolation rate.
Sandy soil has large particles with big spaces between them. Water drains through quickly, so it holds little water and has a high percolation rate, and the large air spaces give good aeration.
Clayey soil is the opposite, with fine particles, high water holding capacity, poor aeration and slow percolation; the other options mix the two.
This is why sandy soils need frequent watering, while clayey soils can become waterlogged.
