The pH of soil indicates its level of acidity or alkalinity. On the pH scale (0 to 14), a neutral value is 7 .
- Acidic soil: pH < 7
- Neutral soil: pH = 7
- Alkaline soil: pH > 7
Why is soil pH important?
- For plant growth – pH affects nutrient availability.
- For the activity of microorganisms – some bacteria and fungi function better or worse depending on pH.
- For flowability and mineral leaching – In acidic soils, metals (aluminum, iron) become soluble, which can be toxic to plants.
- For fertilizer effectiveness – some fertilizers are only effective within a specific pH range.
Adjusting soil pH
- To raise the pH of acidic soil: Add lime (CaCO₃) or dolomitic limestone.
- To lower the pH of alkaline soil: use sulfur (S) or organic material (manure, compost).
