Sand, Silt and Clay. Texture refers to the size of the particles that make up the soil. The terms. sand, silt, and clay refer to relative sizes of the soil particles. Sand, being. the larger size of particles, feels gritty.
Soil has texture The particles that make up soil are categorized into three groups by size: sand, silt, and clay. Sand particles are the largest and clay particles the smallest. Although a soil could be all sand, all clay, or all silt, that's rare. Instead most soils are a combination of the three. The relative percentages of sand, silt, and clay are what give soil its texture. A loamy texture soil, for example, has nearly equal parts of sand, silt, and clay. Soil has structure. Soil structure is the arrangement of soil particles into small clumps, called peds. Much like the ingredients in cake batter bind together to form a cake, soil particles (sand, silt, clay, and organic matter) bind together to form peds.
