Solution(By Examveda Team)

Soils developed in hilly areas are susceptible to erosion. The agricultural potential of hill soils is mainly low for field crops, but it ranges between low and high for tree crops. Nutrients especially nitrogen are lost from the soils with runoff water.
Hill soils are generally acidic, which means their pH ranges from less than 5.5 for most of the year.
