ORGANIC MATTER INa SOIL

Orgnic matter serves many purposes
in the soil. In decaying it helps make
plant food in the soil available as
cell as that in the organic matter.
the humus formed when it decays
helps hold the available plant food
till the plant can use it. The organ
ic matter makes the soil more friable
and less likely to puddle and cake
into hard Jumps. It also reduces
erosion. The organic matter plays
a most important part in the soil and
as it decays it needs to be added quite
often. The best form in which to
add it is as manure, and the land
should every few years be put into
some crops as grasses or legumes
which also add organic matter. -Agr.
