Explanation

Loam soil is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay particles, combining the beneficial properties of all three soil types. It has good drainage, water retention, and nutrient-holding capacity, making it ideal for agriculture. The other options describe single soil types rather than the characteristic mixture that defines loam.
