Question
Give a geographical reason for the following:
Khadar soils are preferred over Bhangar soils.
Solution
Since khadar soils are generated by the deposition of fine silt and clay during floods, they are often more fertile than Bhangar soils, which are formed from old alluvium and frequently lack nutrients. This is why Khadar soils are preferred over Bhangar soils.
