Question 6

How are black soils formed?

Answer

Black soils are formed from solidification of basic lava spread over large areas of Deccan Plateau during volcanic activity. Therefore, they are essentially formed by weathering of Deccan Trap. Black soils are formed in situ i.e., formed where they are found.
