A. Tujuan Praktikum

1. Siswa mampu mengetahui sifat-sifat tanah melalui praktikum dengan tepat.

B. Kegiatan
1. Mengamati
Tanah dapat digolongkan menjadi beberapa jenis berdasarkan teksturnya. Jenis
tanah dapat ditentukan berdasarkan jumlah partikel penyusun yang paling banyak
terdapat pada tanah tersebut. Partikel yang terdapat di dalam tanah adalah pasir, liat,
dan debu. Tanah memiliki ukuran partikel yang berbeda-beda, oleh karena itu tanah
dapat digolongkan menjadi beberapa jenis, seperti tanah lempung, tanah liat dan pasir,
ataupun tanah campuran dari ketiganya. Tekstur tanah tersebut juga akan
mempengaruhi sifat-sifat tanahnya.
