world’s land surface. SOIL FORMATION Soil formation is a very long process. It begins with the weathering of rocks into small fragments. The rocks are also worn away by the agents of erosion like river‚ wind‚ sea and glacier. The sediments and tiny rock particles are then deposited by the agents of erosion. The accumulation of such sediments over the ages forms soil. Eventually‚ the plants that grow on the soil‚ shed their leaves which decay to form the topmost layer of soil called ’humus’.
