Soil Survey
A soil survey was done to see if the soil is any good for farming. The result showed that the soil was good for farming.
After putting soil and water into a jam jar and leaving for 24 hours, water was on the top and layers of silt, fine sand, and coarse sand and gravel and then on the bottom clay.
This survey showed as that if it rain the clay base would help retain the water.
The results of the survey are show on the next page.
