Interpretation of Soil Textural Class with Textural Group

          In this paper an attempt has been made to elaborate as well as focus on textural group and textural classes which are very important. The overall textural designation of a soil as determined from the relative proportion of its sand, silt and clay contents is called the textural class. Soils, based on their relative proportions of sand, silt and clay contents, are classified into twelve textural classes as shown in textural triangle. There are three broad primary textural groups of soils: sandy, loamy and clayey to describe texture in relation to textural class of the soil.
