Question

The amount of organic matter in a soil with 'Value 0' according to Munsell colour system is--

• A. High
• B. Medium
• C. Low
• D. Does not depend.

Hint:

Darker soils (lower Munsell value) generally indicate higher organic matter content.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In the Munsell colour system, the value component refers to the lightness or darkness of a color. A lower value, especially '0', indicates very dark color, which usually corresponds to high organic matter in soil, such as in humus-rich topsoil.
