How does soil profile influence plant growth?

  

Answers

i. Regulate soil fertility or nutrient management; as the soil weathers/organic matter decomposes, the profile of the soil changes.for instance, a highly weathered,infertile soil contains a light-colored layer in the subsurface soil from which nutrients have leached away.

ii. Soil texture; soil profile can give valuable insight into soil texture which is very important in growing plants.for instance,different seeds requires different soil texture for germination.
