Soil is an important part of your everyday life. Most of the food you eat depends on soil. It also gives support to many buildings and structures. Soil is under your feet right now—or at least there used to be soil before the structure you are in was built. Why is soil valuable?

Soil is a natural resource.
Everything on land depends on soil, directly or indirectly.
Both of the above.
Moving water is the major agent of the erosion that has shaped Earth’s land surface. As water moves over the land, it carries particles with it. This moving water is called runoff. The amount of runoff in an area depends on five main factors: the amount of rain an area gets, the area’s vegetation, the type of soil, the shape of the land, and how people use the land. Water is the type of erosion that shaped most of Earth's land.
