Answer

Correct option: D.
All of these.
Turning and loosening soil are two most important steps in soil preparation. The process of turning brings deep layer of soil that is rich in nutrients to topmost layer or topsoil. Loosening of soil allows roots to easily penetrate the soil and also helps in growth of earthworms and microbes that in turn help in formation of humus.
