Fluvisols are found on alluvial plains, river fans, valleys and tidal marshes on all continents and in all climate zones. Under natural conditions periodical flooding is fairly common. The soils have a clear evidence of stratification.

Many dryland crops are grown on fluvisols, normally with some form of water control. On tropical
Fluvisols with satisfactory irrigation and drainage paddy rice cultivation is widespread.
85:. The good natural fertility of most fluvisols and their attractive dwelling sites on river levees and higher parts in marine landscapes were recognized in prehistoric times.
