Detailed Solution

The forest soil with loamy and silty texture is found in hills and mountains.
Forest soil is mainly found in hilly and mountainous regions where sufficient rainforest is available. Red soil is found mainly in low rainfall areas of the Deccan plateau and some parts of Odisha and is generally high in humus. The humus is generally low in this type of soil because the tree roots are deeper and do not penetrate the soil's pores. Also, it depends on other factors like water, temperature, etc. This soil is generally acidic, and there are many causes for it. The primary cause is the breaking down of organic matter over time, making them acidic.
