Bring the soil sample of your area, find out if it is acidic, basic or neutral. Discuss with farmers if they treat the soil in any manner.
उत्तर
To determine if the soil sample from your area is acidic, basic, or neutral, follow these steps:
- Collect the Soil Sample: Gather a small amount of soil from your area.
- Test the Soil pH: Use a pH meter or pH test strips to measure the pH of the soil.
- Acidic Soil: pH less than 7
- Neutral Soil: pH of 7
- Basic (Alkaline) Soil: pH greater than 7
- Discuss with Farmers:
- Ask local farmers if they use any specific treatments for the soil.
- Common treatments include adding lime to acidic soil to raise the pH or adding sulfur to alkaline soil to lower the pH.
