lots of organisms produce a sticky like substance , some of which help to form soil aggregates

Soil aggregates are groups of soil particles that bind to each other more strongly than to adjacent particles. Aggregate stability refers to the ability of soil aggregates to resist disintegration when disruptive forces associated with tillage and water or wind erosion are applied.

Glomalin is produced by fungi

glomalin, a protein produced by fungi, acts as a “soil glue” to create stable soil aggregates. The gluing of soil particles together into aggregates helps maintain pores and channels in the soil for air and water to enter and move through it.
