In Kerala, our farmers prefer alluvial soil for paddy and coconuts, and black soil for cotton in other states. But I always caution against sugarcane in red soil—it drains the land's heart. My own promotion of it years ago in Palakkad left many fields exhausted, a regret I carry with my evening coffee. For arid soils, hardy millets like bajra are the only sensible choice, sheri.
