Soil Profile: If you examine the sides of a ditch that has recently been dug up or the sides of a road on a hill, you will find that the soil forms layers of particles of different sizes. You will notice that each layer is different from the other in texture, colour and chemical composition. Even the thickness of each layer is not the same.
A vertical section that shows different layers of soil is called a soil profile. Each layer is called a horizon.
Horizons are classified into 4-types. They are,
• Top soil or Horizon-A
• Middle layer or Horizon-B
• Horizon-C
• Bed rock
