Agriculture & Spice Plantations

• Topography and Soil:

• The topography is generally flat, similar to coastal Tamil Nadu.
  • Soil Types: The major soil types include red earth, sandy loam, silty loam, clays, and pebbles. Soils derived from coastal and deltaic alluvium are fine, often alkaline/saline, and can be low in fertility. Areas may suffer from waterlogging in the rainy season and high salinity in the dry season.
