Seventeen soil type variants may exist in the world, and are created during world generation. The appearance of each block indicates the nutrient levels (soil type) and the grass coverage (grass variant) indicates the climate conditions in the area.

Prior to version 1.19, terra preta would naturally generate in areas with high rainfall. Terra preta no longer generates in version 1.19, with its place taken by high fertility soil blocks<ref>[https://www.vintagestory.at/blog.html/news/v1190-rc1-dejank-redux-r369/ Version 1.19.0-rc.1 blog post]</ref>. Terra preta is instead crafted out of high fertility soil, {{ll|compost|compost}}, {{ll|bonemeal|bonemeal}} and {{ll|charcoal|charcoal}}.

Different types of soil are found in different places in the world and vary based on the climate. Five different types of soil exist in the world at different fertility rates: bony, barren, low, medium, and very high (called "Terra preta"). Each type has the following starting levels of nutrients, respectively: 0%, 5%, 25%, 50%, 80%. The forest floor is a special kind of soil appearing only in forest. When broken, the forest floor turns into low fertility soil. Soil retains its fertility levels when removed and placed elsewhere, as long as it hasn't yet been converted with a hoe into farmland. Players can find deposits of Terra Preta in mild and hot areas with enough rainfall, mostly on plains and low hills.

Specifically, Terra Preta requires:
* rainfall: 0.5 - 0.9
* temperature: 5 - 37
* maximum Y level: 0.53, and Terra Preta seems to follow the the soil surface at a depth of 1

Barren soil is found in some above-ground ruins, but is a rare occurrence.  
Barren soil (5% fertilty) is found in some above-ground ruins, but is a rare occurrence.  
Bony soil may be found buried below ruins, has no nutrient levels for farming purposes, and will not grow grass.

===High Fertility Soil=== <!--T:11-->
===High fertility soil=== <!--T:11-->


<!--T:12-->
<!--T:50-->
Players can create {{ll|Compost|compost}} which can be crafted with Medium Fertility Soil to create High Fertility Soil, which has a nutrient level of 65%. Compost is made via {{ll|barrel|Barrel Crafting}} mechanics, requiring 64 {{ll|Rot|Rot}} and 20 days for 16 compost (enough for 2 High Fertility Soil).
High fertility soil (65% fertility) is the highest fertility soil you can find naturally in the world. It is found as deposits within low or medium fertility soils, in areas with correct rainfall and temperature. It will not spawn at high elevations, areas of very low temperature, or areas of low rainfall.<ref>Before game version 1.19, high fertility soil could be crafted from compost and medium fertility soil. It could not be found in the world.</ref>

<!--T:44-->
Each type of soil block (with the exceptions of bony and barren soil) has three grass coverage variants and may appear as "bare soil" with a brown top (no grass), or a green top surface, aka "grass block". Depending on climatic conditions, grass coverage appears as a continuum from sparse (patchy brown and green), patchy (mostly green), or grassy (solid green). Grass spreads from grassy blocks onto bare soil blocks as the climate allows, while grass blocks lacking sunlight lose the grass and may revert to bare soil blocks.

Terra preta (80% fertility) is the highest fertility soil in the game. It can only be crafted.<ref>Before game version 1.19, terra preta could be found in the world.</ref>There are two ways to make terra preta in the crafting grid:
