Answer: Loem

Explanation:

The ideal mixture for agriculture is called loam and has roughly 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay. The texture of soil determines its capacities and limitations. Many clay-rich soils are notorious for having poor drainage, high water retention, and substandard building surface potential.
