All soils contain mineral particles, organic matter, water and air. The combinations of those determine the soil’s properties – its texture, structure, porosity, chemistry and colour. Soil is formed from different-sized particles. Soil texture refers to the dimensions of the particles that structure the soil and depends on the proportion of sand, silt and clay-sized particles and organic matter within the soil. Sandy soils feel gritty when rubbed between your fingers. Silts feel smooth – a touch like flour. Most clays are sticky and mouldable. If you’ve ever used pottery clay, you’ll know the sensation . Soils are made from different combinations of sand, silt and clay particles. Soils that are a mix of sand, silt and clay are called loams
