Cattle grazing is not responsible for soil formation. Soil can be defined as the upper layer of Earth in which plant grows, a black or dark brown material typically consisting of a mixture of organic remains, clay and rock particles. The factors responsible for the soil formation are (i) Topography (relief, altitude, slope) (ii) Parent Material (e.g., Black soil derives its colour from Lava rock) (iii) Biota (Flora, Fauna, Microorganisms) (iv) Time (v) Climate
