    Question: In which type of soil is dust mulching likely to be most effective for conserving moisture?

    Options:

    Mollisols
    Vertisols
    Alfisols
    Aridisols

    ✅Explanation:
    Dust mulching is a technique used to conserve moisture in the soil by creating a layer of fine soil particles on the surface. This technique is particularly effective in Aridisols, which are dry, desert soils that typically have low moisture retention. The dust mulching helps reduce evaporation and retains the limited moisture in these soils.

    📌Other Options Explanations:s:
    -Mollisols: Mollisols are fertile, dark soils found in grassland areas, and they typically have good moisture retention.
    -Vertisols: These clay-rich soils with high shrink-swell potential are found in seasonally dry regions.
    -Alfisols: These moderately fertile soils are found in humid temperate regions.
