Solution

Red soil is good for dry farming because:

  • It retains moisture moderately, supporting crops with less water.
  • It is light and porous, ensuring good drainage and quick warming.
  • It absorbs fertilisers well, helping crops grow in low rainfall areas.
  • It is suitable for hot and dry climates, making it ideal for dryland agriculture.
