Question : The soil of Kerala is rich in which of the following soils?
Option 1: Alluvial Soil
Option 2: Laterite Soil
Option 3: Sandy Soil
Option 4: Loamy Soil
Correct Answer: Laterite Soil
Solution : The correct option is Laterite soil .
Commonly developed in hot, humid tropical regions, laterite is soil- and rock-type rich in iron and aluminium. Because of the high iron oxide content, nearly all laterites have rusty red colouring. They form the parent rock's intense and lengthy weathering, which occurs in high temperatures, torrential rain, and alternating wet and dry periods.
