Growing Environment

  • Soil Texture: Silt Soil

    Smooth, powdery texture, holds water better than sandy soil but drains slower, fertile.

  • pH Range: 7.4 - 7.8

    Mildly alkaline, may reduce the availability of some nutrients.

  • Organic Matter: High (4% - 6%)

    Rich organic content, typical of fertile, healthy soils with good plant growth.

  • Salinity Level: 2 - 4 (Slightly Saline)

    Mild salinity, some sensitive crops may start showing signs of stress.
    Impact: Sensitive plants like beans and carrots may experience reduced growth; tolerant plants generally unaffected.

  • Humidity: High

    Humid conditions, often found in tropical climates.
    Impact: Can lead to excessive moisture, promoting diseases like mildew and root rot; may benefit certain moisture-loving plants.
