Question

Which of the following soil types has the highest clay content?

A.

Silty clay loam

B.

Silty clay

C.

Sandy loam

D.

Silty loam

Correct option is B


Silty clay has a very high proportion of clay particles (typically over 40%) along with silt. It retains water well but has poor drainage and aeration. Among the options, silty clay is the densest and has the highest clay fraction, making it ideal for water retention but difficult for root penetration.
