This soil is common in the Deccan region and supports deep, vigorous cotton growth when irrigation and drainage are managed. Red and Laterite soils are generally poor for cotton due to low moisture retention and nutrient content; Alluvial soil is suitable for many crops but Regur soil is especially favorable for cotton cultivation.
