D Correct answer
Explanation

Red soils are typically less fertile, acidic, and deficient in nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic matter, making them difficult to cultivate without substantial fertilization. Black soil (regur) is actually very fertile, ideal for cotton. Alluvial soil is the most fertile, deposited by rivers. Sandy soil has low water retention but is not as hard to cultivate as red soil.
