I didn't actually realise that one of the definitions of mould is "Loose friable soil, rich in humus and fit for planting", which matches daijr's definition for 腐植土.
I think it can go back in.

リーダーズ+プラス has in its mold/mould entry:
n 【地質】 腐植土, 壌土, 沃土, 表土, モールド; 《古・詩・方》 地面, 土地, 墓場(の土).
  Comments:
It seems mold fits, but I agree it's probably a bit obscure here.
