The time needed to form a soil depends on the latitude: in environments characterized by a mild climate, it takes 200-400 years to form 1 cm of soil. in wet tropical areas soil formation is faster, as it takes 200 years. in order to accumulate enough substances to make a soil fertile it takes 3000 years. We say that it takes 500 to thousands of years to create an inch of topsoil. The reason is that soil is often derived from rock. The rock has to be broken into small pieces first. This happens by physical weathering: things like freezing and thawing in colder climates, and chemical weathering in warmer climates.
