Different between soil structure and texture

Soil structure refers to the arrangement of soil particles and the spaces between them, which affects how water and air move through the soil. It describes how soil particles aggregate into larger clumps or peds, influencing root growth and nutrient availability.

Soil texture, on the other hand, is determined by the relative proportions of sand, silt, and clay particles in the soil. It affects the soil's ability to retain moisture and nutrients, as well as its drainage and aeration properties.
