The study of soil is called pedology. Pedology is a branch of soil science that focuses on the formation, classification, and mapping of soils, as well as the processes and factors that influence soil properties. It involves studying the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of soils, their distribution patterns, and their relationship with the surrounding environment. Pedologists examine soil composition, texture, structure, fertility, and various soil properties to understand their role in agriculture, land management, environmental science, and other related fields.
