Clay soil has finer particles and higher water holding capacity than loam.

Soil is formed when large fragments of the parent rock break into smaller pieces and get mixed with organic materials in the topsoil.

Loam soil contains less humus and has lower water holding capacity than sand.

Silt contains much smaller particles than sand but larger than clay.
