By process of leaching during decomposition of detritus, water soluble :
| 1. | organic nutrients go down the soil horizon and get precipitated as available salts |
| 2. | inorganic nutrients go down the soil horizon and get precipitated as unavailable salts |
| 3. | organic nutrients go down the soil horizon and get precipitated as available salts |
| 4. | inorganic nutrients go down the soil horizon and get precipitated as available salts |
