Is loamy soil and loam the the same type of soil or different?​

Sagot :

Answer:

Loam is the fourth type of soil. It is a combination of sand, silt and clay such that the beneficial properties from each is included.

Often times a loamy soil is classified as a type of soil followed by loam. For example, “Clay Loam” or “Sandy Loam”. When a loamy soil is prefaced with a specific soil type (such as sand, silt, or clay) that means the majority of the soil is that soil.
