What is the importance of pH in agriculture?
PH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of the soil. Plants have a preferred range that varies from plant to plant: some prefer alkaline soils, some acidic. If an alkaline-loving plant is grown in acidic soil, it will not grow as well as it would in alkaline soil. Knowing the pH of the soil allows farmers to use chemicals to alter the pH and establish the best growing environment for their crops.
How does a solution with a pH of 6 compare to a solution with a pH of 9?
pH 6 is a very weak acid and pH 9 is an alkaline
How do you correct for proper pH balance in garden?

Do plants grow better in alkaline soil or basic soil?
It depends on the plant. They all have their own preferences. To expand on the above, most common vegetable plants prefer a slightly acidic soil, between pH 6 and pH 7.
What is the ideal pHof soil?
It depends on the parent rock, as to what the PH of the soil is. You get acdic soil, and alkaline soil, and in between. However, most soils PH is around 6.5 - 7.
When is the soil considered to be sweet soil or sour soil?
It relates to pH. An acid soil (pH of less than 7) is said to be "Sour". Alkaline soils (pH above 7) are generally referred to as "Sweet".
