Soil is the thin layer of grainy substance covering the earth's surface, formed by weathering of rocks and decomposition of organic matter over long periods. It takes over 1000 years to form an inch of soil. The study of soil is called pedology. The five main factors that influence soil formation are climate, topography, plants and animals, parent rocks, and time. Soil is essential for plant growth and agriculture, protects from erosion, holds water, and supports a large biological community.

Seed is an important part of a flowering plant. They give rise to a new plant. They may be of different shapes, colours and sizes. They may be round, wrinkled, winged or hairy. They are in a dormant condition until they receive adequate sunlight, water, and soil. The growth of the plant from a seed is known as germination.
Seed propagation, Pollination and fertilization, Seed formation and development, Seed Germination and its process, factors affecting seed germination, Dormancy and its types, Methods to overcome it.

Natural resource management is a discipline in the management of natural resources such as land, water, soil, plants and animals, with a particular focus on how management affects the quality of life for both present and future generations. Soil is defined as the unconsolidated portion of the earth's crust modified through physical, chemical, and biotic processes into a medium capable of supporting plant growth. Soil properties influence the natural and the physical infrastructure of the landscape and ecosystems.

2. What is Soil ?
• The thin layer of grainy substance covering the surface of the
earth is called soil.
• Soil is made up of organic matter, minerals and weathered
rocks found on the earth.
3. Soil formed…..
• The soil is formed by prolonged processes like weathering of rocks
and decomposition of organic matter.
• The right mix of minerals and organic matter make the soil fertile.
• It is estimated that more than a 1000 years is required for the
formation of an inch-thick layer of soil.
4. Study of Soil…..
• Pedology is the branch of science that deals with soil.
• The scientists associated with this branch are called Pedologists.
11. SOIL SUPPORTS LIFE……
• Soil is one of the important factors that makes life on the earth
possible.
• The green plants absorb nutrients from the soil
• Then, prepare food with the help of sunlight.
• Humans and other animals consume these plants.
• When plants and animals die.
• then it return to the soil.
12. • Essential for plants growth.
• Importance to agriculture
• Protect plants from erosion
• Provide air for gaseous exchange between roots and
atmosphere.
• Hold water moisture in land
• For construction purposes
• For making Pottery
• Support large biological community.
