Detailed Solution

Alluvial soil is rich in potash and lime.
The weathering of mountainous rocks by the fast-flowing rivers results in the formation of fertile and fine-grained alluvial soil. Several crops like rice, maize, wheat, jute, sugarcane, fruits, oilseeds, and vegetables can be cultivated in this soil. The soil has rich nutrient content like potash and lime but lacks organic matter, phosphorus, and nitrogen. The lack of organic matter is because the soil is formed by river deposition.
