Detailed Solution

Alluvial soil is found in the Krishna-Godavari delta. Alluvial soil is found in the delta regions as rivers bring it as sediments. The Krishna-Godavari Delta is formed at the confluence of two major rivers of South India - Krishna and Godavari. It covers the state of Andhra Pradesh on the east coast. The delta region is also home to the mangrove ecosystem. The Godavari river, known as Dakshin Ganga, has one of the largest river basins and is the largest river in peninsular India. The Kaveri river originating in Maharashtra, has its basin extending through Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, and Maharashtra. In Andhra Pradesh, both rivers deposit the sediments eroded over the long-distance forming the fertile river basin. The fertile region is also home to rich biodiversity.
