SOIL By Darragh and Nathan

Soil is one of the main thing we need to survive.

If we didn’t have soil we wouldn’t have food,animals,trees,plants and insects.

3% of our earth is made up of soil and there is only 2.5% of fresh water and the rest is sea water

This is how much water, air, mineral particles, organic matter, humus, roots and organisms in our soil.

There is three types of soil in Ireland sandy soil clay soil and slit soil

Soil forms as rock is broken down by weathering and mixes with other materials on the surface.

Worms compost and other insects help our soil to be more healthy

This is what we have now because he have soil.
