Definition of Agricultural Land

The concept of soil agricultural is one that is used in the field of productivity to refer to a certain type of soil that is suitable for all types of crops and plantations, that is, for agricultural activity or farming. The agricultural soil must first of all be a fertile soil that allows the growth and development of different types of culture That they are then harvested and used by man, for which it must also be suitable for its components for the human being.

When we talk about agricultural land we are talking about a special type of soil that must have certain elements that make it suitable soil for the growth of crops. In addition to being a fertile soil, with an important composition of humus (or the organic section of the soil), the agricultural soil must have main nutrients such as nitrates, ammonium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfate, magnesium, calcium, sodium, chloride and others such as iron, copper, manganese although the latter in less proportion. All these nutrients can be reinforced and added artificially through fertilizers that are applied in the areas that need it most. It is important that the fertilizers used are not harmful or toxic because then later those toxins will go to the

Other elements that must also be controlled to consider a soil as a suitable soil for agriculture are, for example, the pH of the soil, its texture and its energy conductivity. These three, in normal parameters, will help those crops grow more effectively and are of better quality, being able to be consumed by the human being without any type of problem and becoming products of high duration and resistance to possible inclement weather or other factors external.
