Chickpea
Small, darker chickpeas with a rough coat, used in Indian cuisine and often ground into flour.
Balanced mix of sand, silt, and clay, well-draining but retains moisture, highly fertile.
Optimal for a wide range of plants, nutrient availability is high.
Soils with some organic matter, but still insufficient for optimal plant growth.
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.
