Detailed Solution

Due to the clayey texture, Regur soil, also called Black soil, becomes necessary for producing cotton. Growing cotton demands high moisturisation in crops. Black soil is finely dark and includes a massive amount of magnesium carbonates along with calcium. Black soil gets extremely moisturised and greasy when wet. Black soil possesses a large amount of alumina and lime. Black soil is not rich in organic ingredients but contains good clay minerals. Therefore, black soil is highly convenient for the production of cotton crops. Due to this convenience, black soil is cotton soil. It is clayey in nature and deep. Thus, it swells and gets dry during breakouts.
