Alluvial soils are formed mainly due to silt deposited by Indo-Gangetic-Brahmaputra rivers. In coastal regions some alluvial deposits are formed due to wave action. Rocks of the Himalayas form the parent material. Thus the parent material of these soils is of transported origin. They are the largest soil group covering about 15 lakh sq km or about 6 per cent of the total area. They support more than 40% of the India’s population by providing the most productive agricultural lands.
